Review all pages with a meta refresh tag. If this tag is used to redirect an old page to a new one, replace it with a 301 redirect.

Hello, Good day, Sorry for taking this long to reply to the progress on this issue.

After checking out these issues, here is what I found:

1. For the duplicate content on the discussion forum created with discourse.org, the only way to fix this is to place a canonical tag on discuss.layer5.io/categories point to discuss.layer5.io as the main page, but there is no way to do that on discourse.org. I did reach out to the team at discourse.org but couldn't get help from them. I suggest we leave this as it is not a big issue, at least for now.

2. For the meta refresh tags on slack.layer5.io, this is done using Jekyll redirect plugin, and I have no idea how to edit that. Besides, Mr. Lee said the meta refresh tags score better than 301s redirects. Hence I think this isn't an issue.

With this, I think this issue can be CLOSED, as there is nothing to resolve from here.

Thank you very much for the opportunity to work on this.

Best Regards. Jeremiah.
