Why won't my profile redirect to my 360 page anymore?

I have my Yahoo 360 settings selected to link my Yahoo profile (http://profiles.yahoo.com/gke71) to my Yahoo 360 (http://360.yahoo.com/gke71). It used to work but now when you go to the profile page, it doesn't redirect to the 360 anymore. Anyone know how to fix this?

Why won't my profile redirect to my 360 page anymore?
You might want to check your 360º Settings--under Basic Info is a checkbox marked "Activate my Simple URL"--this setting controls, in your case:


http://360.yahoo.com/gke71





As an example from my own ARPAnet Pages,


http://www.geocities.com/bcschmerker/ind...


has an included link to my 360º Profile page,


http://360.yahoo.com/profile-3PP1YU4zeLW...


Simple URL would allow access to the same page via:


http://360.yahoo.com/bcschmerker


Good luck on this debug.





Addendum: Thank you for the update on the situation. At this point, I'd have to admit being stumped. Yahoo! normally uses a 26-character alphanumeric code for each profile; I don't track these codes outside of those I need as backups for my own profile accesses. At this point, it's probably a job for Y! Customer Care and Support.
