Weird characters at end of url

Hi Alec,

I currently took over managing a few journals at our institution. The Journals where defaced about 6 months ago. I moved the folders so that its not accessible for hackers.

Now I see that one of the journals have weird characters at the end of url. How can I remove this?

Warm regards,
Ricardo

We’ll need a better idea of what you are seeing to help you fix this. Can you provide a link or screenshot?

Hi, herewith a link

Thank you for your assistance.

The hash or sharp sign (#) indicates a reference to a anchor within the page. This is keyed to an HTML id or to an <a> tag’s name attribute. It is ineffective if there is no matching id or anchor tag, so this is probably harmless at this point.

Where did you find the link?
