Broken links in existing posts after Data Explorer URL change

The link in messages and posts containing scheduled Data Explorer results created by the automation plugin has changed. While the texts have been updated so that new posts will include the correct URL[1], this breaks all links in existing posts.

Is it possible to set up some kind of redirect that still takes you to the query, instead of


  1. once translations are updated ↩︎

Will set up a redirect for the old links today, my bad I overlooked how often people bookmarked or added DE links to their sidebar.

Fix is here, it will hopefully be merged before my EOD:

Hmm. The link in the message the automation sent before the URL was changed is <a href='https://my-forum.discourse.group/admin/plugins/explorer/queries/79'>Abfrage im Daten-Explorer anzeigen</a>.

It no longer takes me to the error page :+1:. It takes me to https://my-forum.discourse.group/admin/plugins/discourse-data-explorer/queries. I hoped it would take me to https://my-forum.discourse.group/admin/plugins/discourse-data-explorer/queries/79

Hmm I thought I tested that format yesterday…let me double check and I will do a fix, agree it should take you to the specific query.

This was interesting, if I went directly to one of the old URLs with a query ID it would work but if I clicked a link with that URL it would dump me on /queries . Fix is here:
