Stupid “bug” or otherwise implementation problem in Ludum Dare’s site.
First, there are two three (WTF?) profile pages:
- http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/?author_name=insert_name_here
- http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/category/ld-29/?author_name=insert_name_here
- http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/author/insert_name_here/
The problems are:
- On the first one, the trophies appear, but the links to your games don’t work, they are all like “http://www.ludumdare.com/ludum-dare-29/?action=preview&uid=insert_game_id_here” instead of “http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-29/?action=preview&uid=insert_game_id_here” as they should be (they are missing the “compo/”)
- On the second one, the links work, but the trophies don’t appear
- On the third one, both the trophies and the links work
Depending on where the link to your profile appear, you will be sent to a different URL:
- I forgot where the first URL appears in a link, but it’s there somewhere
- In your game’s “view author profile” link, you will be sent to the 2nd URL
- Clicking in Ludum Dare posts author names, like the drnick above this text, will send you to the 3rd URL (the correct one)
