Www.julialang.org: Julia soc idea page gives error 404

[sidgupta234]

Julia's soc/ideas page gives 404 error, "It appears that you have stumbled upon a page on the Julia website that does not exist."

[vtjnash]

Where'd you find that link? The URL should https://julialang.org/jsoc/

[sidgupta234]

Literally the first google search for "julia soc"
Edit: I should have mentioned the source in the issue message.

[fredrikekre]

Can you report it here: https://github.com/JuliaLang/www.julialang.org/issues

[vtjnash]

Ah, OK. Yeah seems to be a bad change in https://github.com/JuliaLang/www.julialang.org/pull/544

[ViralBShah]

We probably should set up a redirect for this old link.

Trying to figure this out https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/how-to-setup-redirects-with-hugo-and-github-pages/22798

[logankilpatrick]

All of these give 404's https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=julia+lang+soc

[ViralBShah]

I thought all you have to do is create pages at the old URL location that are 302 redirects. I think the old website had some of these.

[logankilpatrick]

That may be true, I have no idea. I’ll look at the repo and try to fix it tomorrow.

[ViralBShah]

We should probably mark a tag for the old website so we can go back to it easily.

We used to have a redirect layout like: https://github.com/JuliaLang/www.julialang.org/blob/15e055688a3ccc8d7d892907f131b7efcf55c1b5/_layouts/redirect.html

[logankilpatrick]

Did some work on this, but it's still an issue. I got https://julialang.org/soc/ideas-page/ to redirect but not https://julialang.org/soc/ideas-page

[logankilpatrick]

but googling "julia soc" gives this link now: https://julialang.org/soc/ideas-page.html

Fixing this in the next PR
