Common Reasons for this Error

You can get this error for a variety of reasons:

3.

You’ve recently changed the username for your account, but you forgot to update your links to use the new username. Remember that your generic links contain your username: https://www.clkmg.com/[USERNAME]/linkSlug Also, if you’ve changed your username and you’re using Script Forwarding, you’ll need to regenerate the two control files you created before. You can do that here:   How do I set up a custom domain using a Subdirectory?
