GWP's tutorials?

[gwpriester]

Yeah, I have heard there were issues. It was a tremendous job for Barbara Bouton to archive all that work. I frequently search through the Workbook articles and the Guest Tutorials and most of those are accessible. October 09 does appear to have gone missing.

I have great admiration for everyone who provided such resource - yourself, GaryB and all those who made tutorials and helped; even did some myself, although they were posted ad-hoc

The OP implies he is known to you; be that the case or no, there is no cause to go laying blame where it is not due

Every one I clicked on is FORBIDDEN.

We go through this rigmarole every couple of years.

You have to put on the Sherlock Holmes hat.

Start with https://www.xaraxone.com/us/tutorial/; this is Magix's attempt to get things to work.
There is a dropdown of Authors. try that first for GaryP.
There are so many of Gary's tuts missing.

if you click one you get to the Archive. You can then click on the Year link.
You will find many fail.

Another path is http://site.xaraxone.com/tutorials/.
These are post-Gary - 2011 to 2015.

This archive Link takes you to http://archive.xaraxone.com/archive.htm.
You can then try the Guest tutorials.
The best being http://www.xaraxone.com/guest/guest101/.
Be brave and change the guest number, starting with 01.

Someone could extend this code that is run in the browser console to check the Page Link still exist.

var x = document.querySelectorAll("a");
var myarray = []
for (var i=0; i<x.length; i++){
var nametext = x[i].textContent;
var cleantext = nametext.replace(/\s+/g, ' ').trim();
var cleanlink = x[i].href;
myarray.push([cleantext,cleanlink]);
};
function make_table() {
    var table = '<table><thead><th>Name</th><th>Links</th></thead><tbody>';
   for (var i=0; i<myarray.length; i++) {
            table += '<tr><td>'+ myarray[i][0] + '</td><td>'+myarray[i][1]+'</td></tr>';
    };


    var w = window.open("");
w.document.write(table); 
}
make_table()

It would require a function call to check if a link returns a 200.

Working through all the found pages would allow a collation of dead links that could be given over to Magix to unravel.

Your first url link is corrupted Acorn, it includes a semi-colon, perhaps you can edit it. It should be :
https://www.xaraxone.com/us/tutorial/
