Hi Annette,

okay, there's the older-type links http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=6;t=002143;p=1#000000 that still worked before the last update
and the new types the previous version of the boards was already using in the URL bar: http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/ubbthreads.php/topics/172843

I'll be happy if a re-index fixes them but given that the topic ID differs and the URL-format, too, there is mild concern regarding this. It looks like the new format only exposes the post-id, not the thread ID and the old URL format may no longer be supported out of the box. That might be a breaking change not fixable by a re-index. I'm definitely be holding my breath, hoping we can salvage our TOCs and not need another re-write. Well, okay, not on the breath-holding since I'm not Superman taking a small canister of air out into space to deal with Nightfall and it's still 10-ish hours till the re-index.
