I find a lot of useful answers on this forum but in many posts the playground link seems dead. Took me a while to figure out that I need to replace [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/)… with [https://playground.babylonjs.com/](https://playground.babylonjs.com/)… Is there a way that a redirect plugin, or manual redirect could be done that makes all those valuable playgrounds visible again? ---

Yeah, the base URL works. But all playgrounds that are linked from this forum to [www.babylonjs-playground.com](http://www.babylonjs-playground.com) only work if I change the URL. Here’s a thread: [Find the end of a ray/ new function?](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/find-the-end-of-a-ray-new-function/3220) Here’s one directly from that thread Does not work (white window): [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#ZHDBJ#49](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#ZHDBJ#49) The playground works after changing the URL to: [https://playground.babylonjs.com/#ZHDBJ#49](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#ZHDBJ#49) I guess you could search and replace on all posts with “[Babylon.js Playground](http://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#)” to “[Babylon.js Playground](http://playground.babylonjs.com/#)” ---

Hmmm… It might turn out to be a brave browser problem… If so I am terribly sorry!! But, to my defense, the brave shield is down when I test both URLs. 3D stuff or even virtual tours (photography) do not work with the shield up. So I turn it off anytime I want to look at 3D or virtual tours. Just tested in Chrome and both links work for me as well there. ---

I had the opposite problem [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/) worked [https://playground.babylonjs.com/](https://playground.babylonjs.com/) did not work > [@Is https://playground.babylonjs.com/ down?](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/is-https-playground-babylonjs-com-down/28789/4): > > I see bunch of error message in console and the playground never comes up react-dom.production.min.jss:216 TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘LastCreatedEngine’) at Le.updateDescription (headerComponent.tsxx:36:13) at Le.componentDidMount (headerComponent.tsxx:44:14) at ga (react-dom.production.min.jss:219:411) at Ll (react-dom.production.min.jss:259:160) at t.unstable\_runWithPriority (scheduler.production.min.jss:18:343) at Ko (react-dom.production.min.jss:122:325) … tried different browser (chrome,firefox,edge) and had the same issue but worked in incognito mode.

Thanks @satguru !! I can confirm that in Brave the links work when in a private window and after clearing the cookies. Strange but hey! (had to move the solution to @satguru’s post - sue me! 🙂 ) ---

I’m very glad it is working now. Those two domains are forwarded to the same source, so they should always be the same. If they are not we have to check why. > [@alFrame](#): > > (had to move the solution to @satguru’s post - sue me! 🙂 ) lawsuit is being prepared as I write. 🙂 ---

> [@RaananW](#): > > lawsuit is being prepared as I write. 🙂 Give me all you’ve got! 🙂 BTW, at this point, a great thank you to all the people chiming in, the tone and manner in which responses come across and the great effort the admins and developer put into BabylonJS so guys like me, 3D artists coding level, can make use of this and present our 3D content on the web. Interactive, sexy and painless (to a certain degree). Thank you all!! Big hug!
