Frontend practice broken links #120

Closed diana-frontdev closed 5 years ago

diana-frontdev commented 5 years ago

I noticed that in the frontend practice section, this and this link doesn't display the template as expected (find picture here)

P1xt commented 5 years ago

Interesting - I just went and checked them myself and the issue isn't that they're not available, but rather that they are inconsistent across browsers. They just worked fine for me in Chrome, but not in Firefox. The links are good, it's just that the templates themselves provide an opportunity for cross browser improvement.

I'm going to leave them for a week or two. I don't believe that I saw this issue as late as last week, so there's a chance it's a temporary issue with the platform.

In the meantime - you can view the template in Firefox which doesn't appear to be affected by the issue.

I experience the same issue in Firefox 67, Chrome 75, Opera 62, Edge 44, it's bizarre.

P1xt commented 5 years ago

Very odd, I checked it in Firefox 68 and it worked fine. I'll see if I can find some replacements until webthemes fixes their preview. The issue is that they switched to https for their previews but the templates (yes, it appears to be happening with many of them) are loading Google fonts over http.

P1xt commented 5 years ago

In the meantime, you can go to https://webthemez.com and pick any theme you like - if the preview doesn't work, just download the free version and run it locally.

Ahhhh, they must have still worked in the one browser for me because I still had them cached (was doing them myself as part of a speedrun with the red pandas) so you're right, they're broken on all browsers. Will prioritize getting better links.

P1xt commented 5 years ago

All links should now be correct.
