Hi @discourse there seems to be a weird issue with posts from other threads not linking back any more.

So that I can repro, how did you ‘post’ that?

(Also, please email support or team at discourse.org directly rather than tagging the discourse user as we’re deprecating this as a support channel. Thanks!)

Clicking the time on the post gives a URL. Posting that here:

(Sorry, am unclear if you’re asking me to move this to email or just saying that in future I will need to use the email option.)

Yeah, just selects the post when you click on it (or highlights it in blue or something). Weird.

Weird. So it used to be like this: https://try.discourse.org/t/linking-to-other-posts/988

That instance is running the same version as you so something else is interfering.

I’ll do some digging.

It’s fine this time, just meant I needed to create an admin account here to talk to you. Future email is all good.
