[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 5718410, member: 478"] The permalink listed with every post doesn't really work well, because it includes the page number of the thread. If someone posts such a permalink to refer to a post and someone else (who has changed the number of posts per page) wants to use the link, it won't work. While the link to the post number works, it only shows the individual post seperated from the thread. Besides, not everyone is aware of this (I didn't know about it until today either ;)). Why not use the simple link syntax, which only includes the post's ID, for the permalink? [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1234567#post1234567[/url] (1234567 is the (currently) 7-digit post ID) That should be a pretty simple change in the templates and would make it a lot more useful. :) Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
