Could you fix the search links which come in from search engines/the addresses within the new forums? some sort of redirect or just make it like the old one ?
Example :
Search result link from bing/google etc, points to the original forum address:
the info is still there but it now appears as this with the forum update, so you cant see it anymore:
https:// forums.newtek.com/threads/free-video-series-yamatoworks-plugins.153818 (I had to put a space after https:// so it would display as a link, paste to see it in a new window)
This is a problem as it breaks all links to the excellent posts that now act as a repository of experience from the years past, mostly from Lightwaver's long gone.
I am not sure why such a change was necessary; trying to kill off the legacy knowledge in the forums as well as the product itself?
Anyway, some sort of solution would be great.
I also noticed that the "find posts from" option, when clicking on a users name is also gone. That just stripped away the ability to quickly find a significant amount of information from known knowledgeable users. Try it with "erikals" above as a test case, compare to the old forums ability.
thanks for reading, hopefully someone will address these issues.
