Different post numbers
Hi,
Perhaps a Pprune wizz kid or dad can help me? When a post number is referenced in a large thread, The post numbers deemed to be wrong to me. I just found out that the difference is caused by the thread display mode setting: - linear oldest on top - linear newest on top An example is post 4769/4772 of: https://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/48...tos-nepal.html Anyone who knows how to solve this? Is this an item for the forum program support? Thanks, SLB |
It used to be (and may still be) that if a post was deleted by its writer, then all the other ones subsequent to that post moved up to fill the gap.
So if post #50 in a 100-post thread is deleted, posts 51-100 become posts 50-99. References to previous post numbers that were typed in manually could then be out by a few if one or more intervening posts were to be subsequently deleted. The permalink feature (button next to the post number) is I think supposed to avoid this, by ensuring that deletions and resulting changes in post numbers are tracked automatically. |
Thanks I also thought of that but apperently then the re-numbering Goes wrong in the different thread display modes?
Cheers SLB |
