Problem with Ancestry.com links?

Hi. I don't know if this is just a me-problem or more widespread. The ancestry.com links that I've set up using the {{ Ancestry Record | ### | #### } template is today launching a partnerize.com website rather than the 1900 Census Record. Here's an example at Bundick-195, but I've tried 10-12 links at different profiles, and am seeing the same problem on my phone as desktop. Ancestry.com is up and running if I access it directly. If I'm doing something wrong with links ( that worked a few days ago), please LMK. Many thanks!

Edited to say I found a similarly formatted link at Davis-104647, which is not my profile. It's launching the same partnerize.com website.

All - As mentioned below, the Team is aware and working on this. As a workaround, go to Edit mode, Preview, and you can access the links.
This must be disturbing for people who are not members of WikiTree and so do not have access to edit previews.

Perhaps the templates should temporarily be altered so that the links go directly to Ancestry until a permanent solution can be found.
Jim, please allow us time to review and make any necessary changes.
Sure, Steven, but if it's going to take a long time to cure what sounds like a complicated problem properly, a workaround would be worthwhile in the meantime.
Thank You Steve and team for addressing this so quickly! Hopefully, this can be resolved without pulling out too much hair. Your efforts are appreciated!!!!!
I did some searching and came across this page https://signup.partnerize.com/signup/en_us/ancestry where one can supposedly sign up to Ancestry through Partnerize. I haven't tried it myself, but it might be related.
Tech has just rolled out an update to help resolve this issue. If you encounter any additional/new errors, please let me know.
Thank you! That works :)
Cool, it's working again. Thanks!!!
All fixed. Thank you so very much!

Sorry, hit the 'hide' instead of 'reply'. Not sure how it selected mine as best, that was not intentional.
