Update old links in forum topics.

Post by gonzo »

Is it possible to update old forum post links in the forum just like on the Wiki page?

Example:
http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/forum ... 8726#18726
From here:

Something like the phpBB "Support Toolkit" should be able to achieve this quite easy.

Function - Reparse BBCode: Reparses the BBCode for the board's posts.

Here's a topic on the phpBB forum that in the end gave me the above link.

Yes, although it's a chore, since it must be done by rsyncing the web pages (yack).

Please open a ticket (you know, forum's invisible, bug tracker isn't).

Ok.

Reported here:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d ... tid=119507

Maybe add a separate category in the tracker for infrastructure related issues such as forum and wiki?
