Quick Links oddity

Dan_the_Van — Fri, 13 Dec 2024 18:21:09 GMT

Starting at https://community.plus.net/ and selecting I am take to a page where the threads either lock or fixed.

The link for the button is https://community.plus.net/t5/Fibre-Broadband/bd-p/Fibre

But from the main forum page https://community.plus.net/t5/Forum/ct-p/Forum and I select

https://community.plus.net/t5/Full-Fibre/bd-p/FTTPtrial I see the expected page.

I see this using Chrome and Firefox, just me?

Nope, not just you, @Dan_the_Van . I suspect bad coding, but the chance of it being fixed is shall we say, very remote.

@jab1

I did notice the issue some time back, but I thought it was time to make some noise about it 😐

As to be it being resolved.......

I suspect that there is a little confusion arising from the pragmatic legacy of re-organising the forum boards and some recent changes to the quick links. @NickBS

The "Full Fibre" quick link appears to go to the legacy "Fibre" board from when we had "ADSL" Broadband and VDSL "Fibre" boards. When FTTP came along as a for real offering, the latter has since been "off-lined" from the main forum space.

At that point, it was decided that

ADSL and FTTC (also now SoGEA) matters would be dealt with on the "Broadband" board
FTTP matters would be dealt with on the re-purposed FTTP trials board - hence the 'trials' reference in the current board's URL

The "Full Fibre" quick link need updating. Pointing of the quick links is entirely within the 'gift' of @NickBS ... so now he knows about it, I'm certain that a correction will come this way soon!

All updated. Thanks for flagging @Dan_the_Van and for bringing to my attention @Townman
