I can load BG-Wiki. I can navigate through links. But, when I search for anything, it takes me to a page that shows "https://beta.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/"searched term"". No matter what I search for. I cleared cache, history, cookies. Nothing is solving this issue of it going to beta.bg-wiki.com

Could someone more tech savvy assist please?

You can delete the "beta." in the url to reach the page, it kinda sucks, but it's a workaround for the time being.

I'd like to know why it's doing this. Nothing has changed on my end. Something wrong with BG-Wiki? Google Chrome?

They changed something

Although I just noticed I got logged out and when I tried to log in, I got redirected to a similar beta page, which leads me to believe someone changed a base url for some reason? Not sure why links on pages are unaffected since they would likely use that same base url.

The SEO is borked as well, i.e google searches are also pointed at the beta site, seems like someone accidentally messed up a production url with a test url and didnt notice.

It's working now. At least for the last 5 minutes since I got to the computer.
