I'm hoping we will convert over everything I can convert by 11/1.

The "What 'custom' orders do you make at Fast Food places?" URL from the One Question forum topic list (http://the-w.com/f/25) is linking back to the main page rather than the topic. (http://the-w.com/)
Going to the topic via the unread arrow thingy works correctly tho'. (http://the-w.com/thread.php/id=44530)
Cheers
The apostrophes in the thread title upsetting your new URL maker?

Clicking takes you to The 7 front page.

Yup - script typo should be fixed. (We'll find out next week!)

| #8 Posted on 6.11.11 1536.49 | Instant Rating: 9.25 | So, um, when one clicked on the "x new" link in the "Threads" column, it used to bring up only the threads with new posts. Now it brings up all of the threads - new and old. Is there any way to go back to the previous way, because I keep clicking on the stickied threads and confusing myself... :)

Yes! I broke that fixing something else. Hopefully that's ALSO fixed now. (Let me know if it isn't)

Ah... when I close a thread, I also accidentally blow away its URL. That's fixed. Thanks!

And then if you view posts by a user the same way, the URL contains the old thread number.
Periods creates some (minor) cosmetic issues:
-when used in an ellipsis (and not all ellipses have three periods)
Mick Foley leaves TNA...for reals, this time
http://the-w.com/mick-foley-leaves-tnafor-reals-this-time
-when used in a date
TNA Impact 7.14.2011 - "Midsummer Nightmare"
http://the-w.com/tna-impact-7142011-midsummer-nightmare
-when used in the name of a website
the-w.com topics of interest: August 2011
http://the-w.com/the-wcom-topics-of-interest-august-2011
I couldn't find an example of a period being used as an actual period.

Hmmm....I thought I fixed that problem. I'll have to see if I can go back and see how you did it.
EDIT: Must be a moderator problem (vs. an admin problem, which it wasn't). I THINK I've fixed it.

I gotta stop the moderators from editing threads or something.
EDIT: I think I've really got it to stop zapping the short URLs whenever they get edited this time. I think.
