Latest comic bookmark no longer working
I have http://www.giantitp.com/cgi-bin/GiantITP/ootscript bookmarked which used to take me to the latest comic, however now i get a 404 error when using it.
The 'new' link and the latest comic 'arrow' point to a specific comic which means i can't bookmark those now. Anyone know of a link i can bookmark which will take me to the latest comic?

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
You mean there is a link that doesn't need to be changed every time? when I click that link I get to:
https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots1194.html
and I'm pretty sure that does need to be updated every time since it has the page number in it.The end of what Son? The story? There is no end. There's just the point where the storytellers stop talking.

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
Thanks Peelee!
halfeye, you need to edit your bookmark to the link https://www.giantitp.com/comics/ootslatest.html if you just click it, it redirects you to the latest comic so you can't bookmark it after clicking it.

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
In firefox: right click on bookmark. Go to properties. Highlight current "location" box. Replace what you currently have with https://www.giantitp.com/comics/ootslatest.html

You can also right click the link above and select "Bookmark This Link" (Firefox) or "Add Link to Bookmarks..." (Safari) to add it as a new link (and then delete any old ones, if applicable).

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
So you can change the label of the bookmark to be more accurate if the site changes. Web addresses have gotten complicated enough it was easier to move that into an automatic process instead of manual.
Or that's what I think happened.

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
I have been reading OOTS since 2003, somewhere about Strip 23 I think. It took me months to figure out giantitp.com/cgi-bin/GiantITP/ootscript which worked for decades. Thank you for posting the updated link.
P.S. Forum search is restricted to registered users, I only joined the forum in order to perform a search for "ootscript". The solution to this little problem is NOT intuitively obvious to the casual observer. Perhaps a link on the site for us long time readers currently lost-in-the-weeds?Last edited by hghtwr; 2020-08-04 at 11:02 AM.

Re: Latest comic bookmark no longer working
Fun fact, there is a website called blogtrottr which will email you whenever a new comic is out, if you want.
