After updating to 2.8.0.beta4, tommo noticed an issue where all thread titles and notifications link to the last post in the associated thread, regardless of the last read post. For example, clicking on a notification for a quote in post 12 redirects to post 27 instead of post 12. pfaffman suggested this might be the expected behavior, but tommo clarified that every link to a thread, including “likes” notifications, sends users to the bottom of the thread instead of the relevant post.
Hi All,
I’m working as moderator in a Forum using Discourse.
After updating to 2.8.0.beta4, we have a problem where every thread title or notification points to the very last post int the associated thread.
For example:
Suppose thread X has 27 posts, and I receive a notification that someone quoted me in post number 12. When I click on that notification, I would expect to be sent to:
thread X address/12
however, I get set to the very bottom of the page:
thread X address/27
Similarly, before the update clicking on a thread title would send me just below the last post I read. After the update, I am sent to the bottom post every time.
I hope I explained the problem well and was wondering if anyone else experineced this and found a fix.
Sorry I think I did not fully explain the extent of the problem. In a nutshell, every link to a thread is currently sending you to the very bottom of that thread, regardless of what was your last read post.
So, also for “likes” notifications we get incorrectly sent to the bottom, instead of whatever post was liked.
