Old World Items Redirecting to Classic Wowhead?

Hey, tried to find this as a topic, couldn't find anything that really addressed what I wanted to say.
I used to love this resource when gathering for old mogs, running through old content, but now when I search for items from Vanilla/Old World stuff it redirects to Classic, and all the useful comments that used to be on these pages are gone. For instance, right now I'm gathering for some old leatherworking mogs I never got around to, but all the info is from outdated materials and info... Green Whelp Scales? Info bad.
I used to use this site all the time for old world content with no problem. Where the heck are those comments? Why is it forcing a redirect to Classic when I do the search in BFA/Retail?
I honestly think this is a horrible change, and I'd love to know if you plan to resurrect the pages for these items as they existed in Kalimdor/Eatern Kingdoms CATA-onward.
Thanks!

An update. Whatever was causing it doesn't seem to be doing so any more. On one browser (I run two, usually, one with my Youtube/podcast tabs and the other for social media), I was logged in, on the other I wasn't. On the one I wasn't logged in with, it kept doing it, but at some point I clicked away a pop up alert asking if I wanted to see the classic version, and that seemed to solve the problem.

A cookie is created when you select the BFA toggle after being redirected that prevents you from being redirected in the future. Cookies are browser specific so it's possible you have different behavior. Once redirected just click the BFA toggle next to the search box and it'll force the page back and remember your preference, as long as cookies are retained.

Thank you so much. I couldnt see it because I kept looking in the left side for BFA toggle.
