Hello! How do I refer people to this Slack so that they can sign up? https://clojurians.net does not seem to work anymore.

2024-05-10T14:17:56.603639Z

you can always generate a new invite link from within slack

https://join.slack.com/t/clojurians/shared_invite/zt-2ii77rlja-0j5QYwrcsfL8uYMyainBAA is one i just created, will last for 30 days

ericnormand 2024-05-10T14:18:37.066619Z

Thanks! Is there a more permanent link I can use?

2024-05-10T14:19:08.322189Z

i think that site was it, so sadly i'm not sure anymore

The URL is correct, but the underlying invite link must've expired. @seancorfield and maybe some other admins can fix it, I myself have no idea how to do it. In any case, that's the URL I'd share - it will be fixed. Just in case, all the other relevant URLs are gathered here: https://clojure.org/community/resources

ericnormand 2024-05-10T14:20:00.335799Z

The URL is timing out.

2024-05-10T14:20:12.856159Z

oh you can customize the link to not expire

dpsutton 2024-05-10T14:20:35.983429Z

the peek behind the curtain is that slack lets you generate invite URLs which we have that http://clojurians.net URL point to. But slack makes them expire after 200 or 400 invites are claimed through it

ericnormand 2024-05-10T14:20:56.076879Z

I see.

dpsutton 2024-05-10T14:21:14.695499Z

(sean is really good at this) but itโ€™s a manual process to periodically check that link. And if itโ€™s gone stale, create a new one and update DNS records.

2024-05-10T14:21:24.906269Z

https://join.slack.com/t/clojurians/shared_invite/zt-2ii77rlja-0j5QYwrcsfL8uYMyainBAA is a non-expiring link, for example

p-himik 2024-05-10T14:21:39.006789Z

@nbtheduke It will still go "bad" after 400 invites.

ericnormand 2024-05-10T14:21:43.908719Z

Do you know when it has gone stale?

ericnormand 2024-05-10T14:21:48.423269Z

And is that why it's timing out?

2024-05-10T14:21:48.960159Z

oh dang, really? i didn't realize that

dpsutton 2024-05-10T14:21:59.474779Z

iโ€™m not aware of an easy way to see the remaining claims on an invite link

p-himik 2024-05-10T14:22:06.924569Z

@nbtheduke It's right at the top of the second screenshot. :)

i wish i knew how to read

p-himik 2024-05-10T14:25:50.244039Z

@dpsutton The second pinned message in <#G050G0K5D|> documents the process. If you already have access to the admin email, maybe you can do it? I don't have access and the account has 2FA.

Thanks whoever got it working again!

seancorfield 2024-05-10T16:56:50.064709Z

HTTPS has never worked on http://clojurians.net -- only HTTP

seancorfield 2024-05-10T17:13:42.440979Z

@ericnormand We made no changes -- the current invite link is still valid behind http://clojurians.net (not https).

seancorfield 2024-05-10T17:15:31.915509Z

Note that the link on the community resources page is correct (HTTP) so if you clicked that, it would work, but if you typed into a browser, it probably wouldn't since the browser would try HTTPS.

ericnormand 2024-05-10T17:37:46.897219Z

Ah! That must be what's happening! Thanks @seancorfield

seancorfield 2024-05-10T17:19:53.485369Z

point_up::skin-tone-2 Just so folks know: it's http://clojurians.net not https://clojurians.net -- the https://clojure.org/community/resources page on http://clojure.org has the correct (HTTP) link which will work.
