Website migration - online registration links changed
on Tuesday July 4, 2017 04:33PM
As a continuing part of the migration from the old website https://www.fbyc.net/ to the new one https://new.fbyc.net/, we have changed the actual links used when you register for an event. Previously the URL was rather short and ended with a 4 digit number followed by /enter. We have decided not to use event numbers to define events, so we have changed the actual letters in the registration link. For instance when you register for the 78th Annual Regatta the link is https://new.fbyc.net/events/170812-onedesign-78th-annual-one-design-regatta/enter/ and the link to register for the Aug 19 Smith Point Race is https://new.fbyc.net/events/170819-offshore-smith-point-race/enter/.
The final part of each link is the event starting date - YYMMDD - followed by the division name - followed by the event name. Links seen in old emails, or in older news postings will likely still show the 4 digit event number and will be broken. Please visit the website to find the up to date link.
I am very pleased that the migration is going three times faster than I ever thought it would. Please let me know if you have any questions.
