Is this just because how the forum is set up? Can I work around this? Thanks for your help by the way Smile

Curious isn't it!

Not being able to see the whole page, or work with it the best I can do is an educated guess that msg #9939 may have been part of another forum/topic which has been moved or merged to its current location from somewhere you don't have access or permissions to or perhaps it originates from an XML feed and don't show.

But don't quote me on that it's only a guess!!!

So where does #9901 take you? See if it tells you that you don't have permissions to post there!

I did try to replicate what your image shows without success though; I also looked around without finding anything similar.

What I do know is that there are a lot of quirks (for lack of a better word) inherent in most forum software which have various effects the average user don't always understand, such as multiple forum installations using the same database or different combinations of default setting and permissions for various users, or even minor modifications made by the Admins.

Perhaps you could ask the forums admin or moderators, or you could email me the forums URL and I could look see, beyond that I am at a loss as to why this is.

But I do love a good mystery, it's what I live for and it's so satisfying when you finally find the answer.

Let us know what you find and I will keep an eye open.


Interestingly enough, all of the "is a reply to message ######" hyperlinks in the thread all take you back to the original post, regardless of the number it says it's replying to! It doesn't give me an error saying I do not have permissions or anything. I will PM you the link right now. Let me know if you figure out anything. I will also ask the board admins. Thanks again!


Edit: As I've indicated in the e-mail, I am mistaken. All the "is a reply to #####" links do not take you to the original posters, but to the top of the page instead (which on page 1, does happen to be the original poster).
