Ah, sorry about that. It would normally have a small action post as a bridge, but that was a bit of a messy state to leave that particular topic in. I had been manually tidying up the backlinks/references as I went but I must have missed a couple.

I think it would be good if everything worked automagically, as a direct link to the proper post is a lot better than going to a bridging small action post (if one still existed) and then following that to the current topic, but I don’t know how easy that would be to do?

I’m not sure this can be classed as a bug though, as I think it’s working as expected. I’ll slide this over to #Contribute > Feature. 👍
