In the ‘Odd email notice’ support thread, Loki reports receiving email notifications with a broken link (forums.wyzecam.com/queued-posts) that leads to a ‘page doesn’t exist or is private’ error — despite being logged in and having admin privileges. pfaffman suggests logging in first, but Loki confirms they were already logged in. Loki notes the correct link via the hamburger menu is forums.wyzecam.com/review, suspecting the @system-generated message has an incorrect URL. codinghorror tags eviltrout, who believes the issue was fixed in a recent update. mtan, working with Loki, asks why the fix hasn’t been pushed, noting they’ve never manually updated Discourse beyond themes. Stephen reveals they’re on 2.3.0 beta 9 and notes 57 commits since their last update. Loki asks why the link isn’t fixed if they’re on the latest version and where to find the version number in the admin UI. Stephen clarifies updates don’t fix old PMs, but asks if new notifications still have the broken link. Loki confirms the last such notification was two days ago, and Loki reports the issue persists with new notifications. supermathie confirms the issue remains unresolved and under investigation.
I got an email notice to this message this morning:
However, when I click the link https://forums.wyzecam.com/queued-posts, I get " Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.".
I’m admin, so nothing should be private. Also, we don’t have site set to review posts from new users (with the exception of posts from anyone in only one category).
I don’t see anything in the logs somebody else handled a queued new user post.
Is there an explanation? I’m kinda stumped. Thanks.
My guess is that you need to click that link after you have logged in to the forum.
Nope, that’s not it. I was logged in already. And the “Oops” page showed me as logged in with my avatar displayed upper right, etc.
The link is trying to take me to forums.wyzecam.com/queued-posts. However, the hamburger-menu “Needs Review” link takes me to forums.wyzecam.com/review.
Is it possible that the @system generated message has the URL wrong?
Perhaps @eviltrout can advise?
I believe this was fixed already. Has it been a while since you updated your Discourse?
Working with @Loki here. Shouldn’t this update be pushed? We’ve never “updated” our Discourse expect for custom themes/templates.
Two questions:
If that’s the latest version, then based on above comments, shouldn’t that link to the Needs Review page be fixed already?
Where do we see in our Admin interface what version of Discourse we’re running? Maybe a dumb question, but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
Thanks.
There have been 57 commits since your last update
Updates don’t retroactively correct old PMs, are new PMs arriving with the same broken link?
The last one I see is two days old:

We are still getting notifications with the wrong link to the Needs Review page:

It appears this is still unresolved - we are investigating.
