I just realized that i can’t go back to the original topic when following a link without post number. To illustrate: https://meta.discourse.org/t/welcome-to-meta-discourse-org/1 https://meta.discourse.org/t/welcome-to-meta-discourse-org/ Is this a bug or not possible by design?

Yes please, keep the slug and the id: For example https://meta.discourse.org/t/cant-navigate-back-when-using-urls-without-post-number/197060 That way the link will remain stable. Also this will work but it is not as pretty imo and will cause a redirect. https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/197060

I would say this is an edge case, it was reported before. Our ember router and discourse server router are in slight disagreement about what to do here. Relying on slug that is ever changing for routing a topic is super fragile anyway. If we rename “welcome to meta discourse org” to “welcome to me…

Ok, thanks! So if I want internal back and forth to work, I actually need to keep both slug and id? Because using just the id seems not to work: https://meta.discourse.org/t/1

Ah ok, so I just need any slug and the right id, as in t/welcome/1 Thanks for clarifying :ok_hand:

Ah ok, j’ai juste besoin d’un slug et du bon id, comme dans t/welcome/1
Merci pour la clarification
