Broken links on lds.org
Hello, I'm a newly called ward clerk, was called last year but due to medical reasons I've been away from church for a few months. I'm trying to watch the training that I was told to do on the website but the links under record keeping and technology support are not working. I keep getting the error message "page not found" do you know if these are going to be fixed or if the training is available somewhere else? I was able to watch 2 videos under the "getting started tab" but that's it. Thanks for your help in advance.

Re: Broken links on lds.org
What are you clicking on that turn out to be dead links? If it was something sent in a email, they might not be valid anymore.

I'm going to lds.org from my web browser. I sign in and click on resources / Melchizedek priesthood / Record keeping and technology support. Any links under the finance, membership tabs comes up with page not found. I'm attaching pdfs prints of the screens.

Re: Broken links on lds.org
I suspect your calling hasn't recorded correctly. If you've just been set apart this past Sunday, you may need to wait another day or so for the electronic keys to be conferred. I tried a number of links and they worked for me.

OK thanks for your help, I will wait for a couple of days and let the branch president know.

Re: Wireless Survey of church building with Netspot
As russellhltn says, but also check that your calling has been entered as a standard calling in MLS. A custom calling of the same name won't give you the necessary permissions to access the online resources that go with that calling!russellhltn wrote:I suspect your calling hasn't recorded correctly.

Re: Broken links on lds.org
I am getting the same thing. All the links from the Meetinghouse Technology page are broken. And I have been a Technology Specialist for a long, long time. Using both Firefox (31.0) & IE (11). See attached.

Re: Broken links on lds.org
I've confirmed with Firefox that every RKATS link is broken (but Chrome and IE don't seem to have any problem). I've passed this on to the person in charge.coreysprague wrote:I am getting the same thing. All the links from the Meetinghouse Technology page are broken.

Re: Broken links on lds.org
The person in charge of RKATS said he couldn't duplicated the problem, even with Firefox, so I kept digging to see if I could figure out what was going on.aebrown wrote:I've confirmed with Firefox that every RKATS link is broken (but Chrome and IE don't seem to have any problem).

I noticed that I had a pending Firefox update. When I exited and restarted Firefox, I was upgraded to 31.0. Now all the RKATS links work fine. It doesn't make a lot of sense that links would fail because of a pending browser update, but all I can do is report what I did, and that it is working fine now.
If anyone else is having this problem on Firefox, please check to see if you have a pending upgrade, make the upgrade happen, and then try again (and report back here what you find).

Re: Broken links on lds.org
I am having the same problem using IE 11.0.9600.17207 and Chrome 36.0.1985.125 and Firefox 31.0. I have been a financial clerk for about 8 months and I have been able to access this before. I had not previously had Firefox installed so I installed version 31.0 and it does not work either. I only get the Page not found error when I am logged in. If I am not logged in it takes me to a page that tells me that I need to login to see all available content.
