Re: Geode Website Check For Apache Events Does Not Have Expected Link

[Joey McAllister]

Nice find, Mark.

As much as I would like for that yellow to turn green (and that would be
easy enough to do), in this case, I think the homepage link is correct as
it is and the link checker is performing inaccurately. Perhaps we could
file a ticket with Apache to account for projects that include a link to
the Apache Events page?

Geode Website Check For Apache Events Does Not Have Expected Link

[Mark Bretl]

Hi All,

Apache has a tool for checking all TLP websites and our site is all 'green'
except for the Events check, https://whimsy.apache.org/site/project/geode.

At the bottom/footer of our main page, there is an Apache -> Events link
which has a HREF value of http://www.apache.org/events/.  The website
Events check is searching for ^https?://.*apache.org/events/current-event.

The expected link is on the Community page, but I think the crawler is
finding the link on the main page and stopping. Do we want to update the
footer or leave it as is?
