There’s a feature where you can create URLs to pre-compose a message to a user or a group, like this:
The user links still work, but the group links no longer work in Discourse 1.9.0.beta10
. They silently redirect to the main URL, but neither a composer not an error message appear.
Original report here:
I can’t get this to work anymore. It works just fine with the username-feature, but i can’t get it to work with the groupname-feature.

Ok, this is fixed:

While testing I noticed that the autocomplete in the composer for new messages doesn’t show groups unless they are mentionable. That’s probably a sideeffect of Split into two settings: "Who can message and @mention this group?" - #5 by nbianca
