Official Lds Site Hacked?

Official LDS Site Hacked?

Has anyone else noticed that certain pages on lds.org reload over and over again or point to an unusual IP address?

I've just visited several pages on LDS.org and everything worked okay for me. I went to the Gospel Library, Serving in the Church, and Provident Living, and clicked on about 20 links in all. Are there particular pages you are experiencing difficulty with?

Well as an example... go to the LDS Activity Board and access the link from the Thread where I recommend the Church site for activities for toddlers and you will find that the page reloads itself continually.

Also try: https://www.lds.org/search/ and try searching for something.

I believe the reason for this is they are trying to make a transition, but have forgotten that people will be accustomed to accessing certain links. That is a critical mistake of most web designers today.

The Activities for Toddlers link worked for me and didn't reload itself, but the search page didn't work. I received an error message. I guess you're right in that it is temporary.

Offtopic but,
This might be a stupid question, but I'm curious about something. Is the answer to this problem a re-direct page where the link used to be?

It seems that the server that used to handle the info is different than the page that send you to it (namely lds.org). They are assuming that everyone access this through the main lds.org site and then use the links there, but they are wrong. Feel free to contact (Church Office Building) them about it and be called a heroine for the day.
