Holy macron, the new look of DansDeals reminds me of The Points Guy, sad! Well, as in every “new” upgrade, after a few months we will all shut up and move on with it.

Search results for elal. Starts from 2011 with ads goes down to 2008 then jumps up to today with a random amazon deal thrown in.

not sure if this was addressed or not -

A lot of the old webpages are not moved over, so for example when I searched google to find ITA matrix on dansdeals and then clicked the link the pages did not load.
Seems work for me, have an example?

Search for El Al.

That's not a fix. Search should be smarter than that.

I never write ElAl, so I'm not surprised that the results are wonky.

Also I would change this:

DAILY EMAIL DIGEST
You will receive a roundup of deals, dead or alive, that were posted in the past 24 hours. Use SMS/Twitter for instant deal alerts.

I've often found results to be kinda wonky overall, but presumably that's a wordpress, not DD, issue.

Making progress.

-Social media sidebar is back
-Legacy mode is back
-Hide expired deals is back
-Scroll to next post in legacy mode is back

More to do for sure, including comment subscriptions, etc, but what other bugs do you guys see?

Do you plan on changing the links or that's part of the overhaul change? (I always found the small links very easy and convenient, but in a way to see what the link is before having to click on it is also nice, but hate it that the links are huge.)

Title in URL is what Google wants to see.

Thanks.
