Hi,

fairly new to Hummy.org.uk, have recently revisited the site to see things have changed. Initially had problems logging in, my password which worked on the old site didnt on the new, but now resolved with a password reset.

I have found that the embedded links within the old threads are not linked to the corresponding thread on the new web site. i.e. if an old thread has a link to another thread, when I click on it I am redirected to the old site and required to login to view the post. Shouldnt it be directly linked to the new site?

Mike does point out in the Forum Update post on the home/index/whatever page of the forums that any links will have to be updated manually. I guess they point(ed) directly to the Invison forums.

Thanks for the reply, I must have missed that.

I thought maybe there was a script he could run that would automatically update the links.

I'm fairly new here, so I dont have any posts with embedded links. Its going to be a bit irritating until the links have been updated.

I agree but it was done once before so it shouldn't be too hard this time around.
Its a pain in the butt but out of my hands
