Deal alerts links in inbox throws a 404 error

205 101 April 28, 2026 at 08:28 PM
Hi everyone,

For the last 2 days, when I click the thread link for deal alerts in my inbox, it throws a 404 internal server error. Any help is appreciated to fix this issue. I am using Chrome on a macbook

Thanks for taking the time to report this. Are you able to view the site okay otherwise? Can you go into threads directly without the error?

Does this still happen if you click on links from a deal alert email that was sent a week or two ago?

Can you please forward one of the emails that is giving you this issue to [email protected]?

Hi, Everything else on the site is working fine except for this. It occurs on deal alerts in the inbox that was created the last 2 days. Emailed you a screenshot of the error.

This should be fixed now. It won't fix the PMs that you received while the bug was active, but you shouldn't see this error on future PMs. If you do, please let us know.
