Old forum links do not redirect

[wila]

Hi,

So far I have not seen any old forum links redirect to the current threads at the broadcom forum.

This means that old links at places such as reddit or blog posts & websites that directly refer to a specific forum thread for context or details no longer work.

Here's a few examples:

from reddit:

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Player/All-USB-devices-are-greyed-out/td-p/2878067

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/Unable-to-connect-WebCam-to-Workstation-10/td-p/1817600

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/Unable-to-connect-WebCam-to-Workstation-10/m-p/1817619/highlight/true#M107827

from my internal notes:

https://communities.vmware.com/thread/522429?start=0&tstart=0

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/Mouse-and-keyboard-not-working/m-p/1775917

https://communities.vmware.com/message/2541835#2541835

There's literally TONS of links that I have and none work, not even one so far.

@wila  -  We are aware.  The team has about 60% of all 1.4 million redirects working from four VMware-migrated sites.  I have flagged your posted redirect links for the target communities for review.    Thx  ~jm

Home - Broadcom Community - Discussion Forums, Technical Docs, Ideas and Blogs

https://communities.vmware.com/message/2541835#2541835 will not redirect only main pages, threads, docs and deep long tail links to migrated and activated communities.  

Also, I moved this issue to the Water Cooler.  Broadcom Customer Care does not work on this type of issue.
