Factorio Forums

Since https://forums.factorio.com/forum/[query] got moved/rewritten to https://forums.factorio.com/[query], essentially all links indexed by google are now pointing to https://forums.factorio.com/[query] instead, which only contains a static redirect to https://forums.factorio.com/, and the query is disposed.

Please add a working redirect rule for https://forums.factorio.com/[query] to https://forums.factorio.com/[query] ASAP, before Google eventually starts wiping the forum from the search index all together.

And that is not yet answering what caused Google to mess up the search index like that in the first place.
There is an unnecessary double 301-redirect from http: to https: inside www.factorioforums.com first, before the redirect to forums.factorio.com happens, that might have caused unintended side effects.

There is a redirect from ^/forum/(.*)$ to $1, same goes for /wiki/, why do we need another one? Could you link me to the google search page, that contains invalid links?

Edit: Nevermind, found them, fixing.

Ok, should be fixed.

Thanks, deep links are working again.

Now we've got to wait for Google to retry. Guess Google stopped crawling when it noticed a large number of 301s to the same location.

.

Fixed again.
