Recend changes cause a lot of dead links
-
It has come to my attention that recent changes have caused a lot of links to break. It would be nice if there is something that could be done about this. I found that out while searching for information - a lot of the adequate answers consist of links to resources, and with the links broken the answers are rendered invalid and useless.
And it doesn't seem to be an issue of old resources or those under the Nokia umbrella. For example "this link":http://doc.qt.digia.com/qt/qdeclarativedynamicobjects.html was valid just 2 months ago, today it redirects me to "here":https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/index.html, which is hardly useful.

You're completely right. Please file a bugreport as well on this. It also affects things like being able to link to documentation using the square brackets. It is very annoying these links now end up at the main documentation landing page instead with the classes.
Moved to Beta Testing by the way.

I have reported a bug report on a very similar topic "here":https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTWEBSITE-513. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have attracted any developer attention so far.
Perhaps some votes from you and others might help?
