Wordle officially has been moved to nytimes.com
- mejackreed 5y agoOne unfortunate thing NYTimes has done is to block iframe embeds of Wordle :(
- Bluecobra 5y agoKudos to the NY Times for preserving my previous game statistics!
- isiahl 5y agoI wonder how that was done, assuming the original stats were stored in local storage?
- snarkyturtle 5y agoA thread on Twitter that I can't find confirmed that when they implemented the redirect, they took the stats in localstorage on the co.uk. domain, encoded it into json and passed it through a query param where the new site just parsed it and stored it in localstorage.
- gabrielsroka 5y agoSadly they seem to have missed the fact that many people have the old site bookmarked, and if you go back to the old site it will transfer your old stats again, erasing any progress you've made since then. At least I was able to repro that on two separate browsers.
- MerelyMortal 5y agoThank you for saying that, I checked my stats and you are correct. Unfortunately setting my device date back to redo the missing games, does not work.
- Xophmeister 5y agoI wonder for how long the NYT will keep it free…
