Legacy link / redirect url issue # User testing needed

[911UK]

As part of the upgrade, we went live with gaps in the redirect / links urls from the old site
i.e. any link from the old site went to an error page

At this time this problem is being worked on should be available shortly, from direct links and through search engines

Update
Any link from the old site will now work, if anyone wants to test this out let me know
either from a thread number or a specific post number

WIP
Search engine link updates are not complete, as it's a mix of both threads and post references

On my 993 journal the shortcut links to specific posts are not working ie just refresh the post when clicked ?

Also you used to be able to edit posts you had created eg I could add new shortcuts to the first post of a thread if I added another subject to the journal thread. You can't do that anymore ?

Have you not got the word Edit in grey below your signature lines? If you click on that it allows posts to be altered in the same way they used to be.

Apologies in advance if this is just something available to moderators.

Nope, shows "Report" but no Edit option, must be influenced by user rights eg you lot are mods so have it ?

You need a fake ID like Zingari has to test normal people things ;-)
