Broken advertisement templates on Codidact sites
On the advertisement page of Codidact Collab, there are five types of advertisement templates available:
- Codidact network
- Community
- Random posts
- Specific post
- Random from Category
This specific post is about number 3 (Random posts) and number 5 (Random from Category)
"Random posts" advertisement template
On the preview itself, we can see that instead of showing a random post, the image just shows the "Community" ad.Here is a screenshot (the erroneous part is marked inside a red rectangle):
"Random from Category" advertisement template
While this doesn't have a preview, it does have instructions on how to use it. They say:
Replace X with the category ID
In the provided image link:
Codidact Collab has a Q&A Category whose "Category ID" seems to be 56.
Replacing "X" with "56" in the image URL makes it https://collab.codidact.org/ca/category/56.png.
But loading that image results in a 404 (here is a screenshot):
Update: Similar issues with ad templates of Outdoors, Photography, Scientific Speculation, Cooking, Judaism, Languages & Linguistics, Code Golf, Christianity, Music, Physics and Power Users.
