Lost Horizon Deactivated User 675 Posts 6/05	Posted - Sep 3 2005 : 4:22PM If I am replying to a post and feel that some earlier thread is relevant, it is easy enough to make a link just by copying and pasting the url of the earlier thread. But what if it is only a particular post within a long thread that I feel is relevant, how can I make a link that will go to that specific post? [Link]
Flash Golden Age Classic 11018 Posts 5/01	Posted - Sep 3 2005 : 4:53PM This is rather rudimentary, but if you search by poster it will give the number to use to link to the specific post. I'm sure there is a better way but that is the only way I currently know. [Link]

Lost Horizon Deactivated User 675 Posts 6/05	Posted - Sep 3 2005 : 5:29PM Thanks Flash. It may be rudimentary but it's good enough for me. I can't imagine it's something I'm going to want to do much but I'm happier now knowing I can do it if I want to. [Link]
Drew Black broken crankshaft 8009 Posts 9/99	Posted - Sep 4 2005 : 9:13AM It's not easy but it can be done. The values to add in the URL are: &reply=592521#post592521 Where the reply= is the reply number that can only be found by viewing the HTML of the page. [Link]

Lost Horizon Deactivated User 675 Posts 6/05	Posted - Sep 4 2005 : 9:45AM Thanks Drew. I'm definitely going to have to find an excuse to try this out at some point very soon. [Link]

Click to expand How about putting that reply number in the top right corner of every post? [Link]

Kperv The Cuddler *struck (She slipped) 1818 Posts 1/04	Posted - Sep 4 2005 : 12:57PM If I do a search that gives a hit in a long thread, the right page is rarely shown when I click the link. I expect the cause is the same as what is stopping the Nonsense thread's page counter from incrementing, until the last page has a few (around 10 I think) posts. [Link]

Click to expand The whichpage= part of the URL specifies a page number. But each user can specify their own setting for the number of posts per page. So User A has 20 posts per page and User B has theirs at 50. Whichpage= in the URL means something different for each of them. I don't remember how the &reply= works. It might figure out the proper page number or it might not. [Link]

I don't remember how the &reply= works. It might figure out the proper page number or it might not. Click to expand It tries to. The resulting URL does not have a whichpage= argument. In my case it guesses wrong, but I suppose it expects the default pagesize (which I can't remember what is). My pagesize option is set to 50. [Link]

Click to expand I'll look at it in a few minutes. It might be a simple fix. [Link]
