Hi, if you go onto the compendium and click on a source like a dungeon or dragon magazine, or like player handbook 2, it won't link correctly. 
 

 

I got this link for example while trying to go to dragon magazone 195 on the rust monster entry.

Edit:
 

I get that we don't get updates, D&D4E is dead, I get that. Can we at least maintain what level of service we are paying for?

I had a similar issue, and I found that I just had to look up the information manually. Go to the Article Archive and limit yourself to Dungeon or Dragon articles only, then find the issue the Compendium or whatever reference you're using mentions the original appearance of whatever you're looking for, then try to figure out the article the information you're looking for is in... It works, but it's a hassle to do. If you're trying to reference something other than Dungeon or Dragon magazine articles, well, you might just have to have the original book.

I've noticed this too. I tend not to look at the articles much, but I've recently been wanting more details on a few items and was disheartened to find that I couldn't use those links. I hope someone is reading this who can restore those links.

So, what does my DDI subscription get me with 5e?  No character builder.  No compendium.  Are Dragon and Dungeon even continuing e-publication? 

 

It's a good thing I found the archives that have the online character builder and such.  It's a better thing that they still work.  We're planning on completing the 4e LFR Epic series (level 24 now) and those will be useful.
