Thanks.Dear Wiggo said:postid is the unique identifier for an individual post.
I think you are the only person who would leave to protest Hog's ban, and as the above post proves, you are actually still here.the sceptic said:who could have guessed that banning all the good posters while letting bots troll and downgrading the forum to something from the 90s would make the forum look like a ghost town?
why not just unlimited URLs - I doubt anyone will put 5000 URLs in a postlemon cheese cake said:Ten URLs is an improvement, but what is tge maximum amount the forum provider actually go up will go up to. For example it may be 20 or 40. The Race Design Thread libraries would need a lot more than ten if Libertine will do it this way now we know that a single post view is being tinkered with.
Also what is a "postid".

Would that be:
Impossible?
Difficult?
Manageable?
Yeah threads redirect, but not with the page.sam said:Netserk said:Imo getting old links to redirect to the new post/thread url would be really great.

Threads should redirect as they have the same ID's
Post's not sure would have to look but that seem like it will not be possible

http://forum.cyclingnews.com/showthread.php?t=27882&page=2 redirects to http://forum.cyclingnews.com/viewtopic.php?t=27882 as an example. Imo this is good as it is and doesn't need to change.
Now I don't know anything about the technical aspect of it, but wouldn't you still have all the old postIDs? I would really, really wish it'd somehow be possible to get them to redirect to the new urls.
Cheers.

also, when I visit a thread it takes me to the top instead of to last post..this has probably been mentioned a few times upthread but it takes so long to navigate I'm not going to look.
and in between clicking on new posts then I have to go back to index before I can click on new posts again..
not a real hardship but things just don't go smoothly anymore.
Go to Edit profile. Then Board Prefrences. click on Edit display options. Its somewhere in that place.Amsterhammer said:I kept seeing all kinds of people with signatures, which led me to wonder why mine had disappeared, even though it was there according to my profile. So, I have now edited it with an exclamation mark, and wait with baited breath to see what happens after I press submit.....
...and bingo, no signature. Any ideas why my sig won't post?

Right click link, open in new tab.

Place mouse above link, click middle (scroll) mouse button.

Pete said:Links included in posts using the [ url ] tags will open in another tab / window, though this may not be the case for posts made before (or very soon after) we changed forum platforms.
