Link style[edit]

The template did not use the old style forum style links (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php with postid and postcount). You don't need the thread title information in the url. Take this full post url for example: https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/150534-Official-Known-Issues?p=1755313&viewfull=1#post1755313. You only need https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/150534 to link to the thread, and you only need https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1755313 to link to the post. — Zav(C·T·E) 14:26, October 5, 2014 (EDT)

  • I tried that and I got a 404 PNF error. I'm not sure what is going on exactly, but for easy of use the template should be able to properly handle BOTH types of URLs and since the https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1755313 ones redirect to the https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/150534-Official-Known-Issues ones on the forum itself, I would suggest that the ones redirected to should be the default type.

    • ?p=1755313 will redirect to a specific post in the thread. /150534 is the thread. So you want the full end of the url (150534-Official-Known-Issues?p=1755313&viewfull=1#post1755313 [post] or 150534-Official-Known-Issues [thread]) to be the default first parameter input? That should be an easy fix. I can change the template and bot through the page changes. — Zav(C·T·E) 16:01, October 5, 2014 (EDT)
      • I would think that makes the most sense. It is what I see the most, and I expect others see that the most too. ShoeMaker (Contributions Message) 17:14, October 5, 2014 (EDT)
        • The template has been updated, and all current uses of the template have been changed. — Zav(C·T·E) 20:58, October 6, 2014 (EDT)

broke[edit]

somebody broke something around label parameter. link title is showing up as "ReleaseNotes" instead of "Release Notes", its ignoring spaces in some cases. --yoko5000 (ContribsMessage) 01:40, December 11, 2015 (EST)
