This works for me, https://www.chess.com/events/2022-chesscom-global-championship-finals 

Also this one, https://www.chess.com/events/2022-chesscom-global-championship-finals/games 

Didn't even know about this event until I saw this thread.

 

You can usually parse out from the end of the address to get closer to the root of the files. So removing "?alert=content" did the trick. 

Hey thanks.

The link I posted is from my "Home Page" - New post from Chesscom and I think it's an article "5 Reasons To Watch The Chess.com Global Championship Finals"

@HappyHansGiving are you seeing the same message when you click on the link I posted?

It looks like the error I'm getting is HTTP 403. This error indicates the chesscom server understands my request but refuses to authorize it. I haven't played any Live Games in a while, perhaps I lost the privilege to view some Articles. I am still a Diamond member.

Link works for me. It's possible it was temporarily unpublished to fix something when you were trying it initially.

Yes, it now is working for me too and I could now remove it from my alerts by viewing it. Thanks!

I don't know, but I also got an email to check the article out. That's when my problem began because I couldn't view the article linked in the email.

KingMoored

The email was from Chesscom.

Perhaps if you follow @CHESScom you should get an alert on you Home when they publish news and articles.

I don't know, but most articles and news is posted by the user @CHESScom
