Sorry I had missed your link among the junk I had to moderate.

I have just tried to update your document, only to find out that there seems to be no way to do it. Our website CMS allows us to add extras, but not replace them. I thought there would be a backdoor way to delete extras, but it doesn't seem to have the desired effect.

I don't see a good solution in this case...

Greetings O Great Emperor Japo(deis) (not Capo nor Paco ).

I hope you are not referring to my Puns, Infamous and Unfunny Bad Jokes and Nonsense Stuffs ...

By the way, I have a solution that is not totally satisfactory to work around this problem.

If it is possible to rename this file as “Walkthrough - Updated” or something? Would it be something like that, (Mi)Lady of the Rings updated the Walkthrough written (Dragonsphere) and rename the file so there is no conflict or error on FTP?

Nice suggestion!

But meanwhile, it seems the old walkthrough's filename has been renamed and is also no longer under my credit (if you enter my profile, the contribution is gone!). Why is that?

Is there anyone around with FTP access?

I found the right way to delete an extra on this stupid website (it's not as simple as FTP any longer unfortunately). Everything should be ok now (unless yesterday I broke something else than the old extra).

I have converted your document to PDF.

I'm glad you solved it!

However, your PDF converter has removed all links, including the index anchors and my copyrighted credit (keep in mind the game pages don't credit documents).

Here's a temp link to a PDF that retains all links, can you please use it instead?
