    Resolved [RESOLVED] Threads being moved without indication of movement

    Hello,

    This is a small bug bear, but I think it is valid...

    I have seen a couple examples in the last couple of days of threads that have been moved between forums, but there hasn't been an indication that the threads have moved. Am I imagining this?

    I think it really helps to see that a thread has been moved from one forum to another, as it sometimes helps to be able to follow the progression of the thread.

    Thanks

    Gary

    Maybe the Admin/Mod who moved the threads used a timed redirect and the redirect expired so you dont see the reference in the subforum where it used to be anymore.

    Normally you get a post in the thread, saying something like, moved from such and such a forum.

    Do you happen to remember any details of one of these situations, such as thread title and/or which forum it was moved from/to?

    Here are the two that spring to mind:

    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=628308

    And this one:

    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=627847

    Which I swear I posted on in the ASP.Net Forum, then all of a sudden it appeared in the VB.Net Forum.

    Thanks

    Hi, that would be me

    I was under the impression that people subscribed got a notification.

    I'll add "moved" to the threads in future.

    Is there no way of getting this post to be added automatically?

    No worries.

    I thought I was going mental there for a while with threads jumping across forums.
