Sending a DM to a user via a post no longer populates title and topic link

[jayneivana (Jayne)]

Hello,

I am wondering if this is by design or a bug, We are currently on “2.8.0.beta7” as of yesterday. We use to be able to do the following -

To Repro:

1. Go to a topic
2. Scroll down through replies and find someone you need to DM.
3. Click on their username. Soft box pops up and click “Message”

Expected:
The DM Topic Title will populate with "Re: [topic title], and the body of the DM will populate with a quoted link to the thread.

Actual:
Neither populate, and the DM title and body is now blank.

It was reported before.

Reference to topic when messaging gone?

In the past when you click a users avatar to message them there would be a reference to the topic in the message, has this been removed? I didn’t see a mention in the release notes but I may have missed it. I used this all the time and bummed to see it gone, hope it’s a bug!

I miss the autofil too
