Hello.
I had collected more than 100 great threads in an excell sheet, including tags and links and now none of the links are going to the correct thread.
I guess this has to do with the last week problem with reduser, seems like the page numbers have changed in the URL, but are there any way we can get it back to how it was before... so that my linked threads are working again.
Pleaaaaaase!

Sincerely
Are Pilskog

…and most most google results are broken as well (though they will fix themselves in a while.)

Not just your spreadsheet and Google, but even worse IMHO is that the integrity of the forum itself is compromised any time a post contains a hyperlink to another REDUSER thread. For instance, here is a thread in which I cross-linked to another thread: http://reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?t=30893

Post #2 links here: http://reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?t=15319 (Avid workflow with red camera)

But the actual thread it originally linked to is this one: http://reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?t=14949 (VFS Inclino, Imperio, Origo News ??)

The ID changed from 15319 (pre-crash) to 14949 (post-crash).

I've only got a few posts here, so I can fix mine easily enough by hand, but it seems there would be thousands of similar examples throughout the forum.

I hope the moderators can and will fix this.

You can search for the thread names if you have them in the spreadsheet

Wonder if the post ID offsets are consistent or completely variable. If consistent then they're potentially fixable. If not, we're probably out of luck!

Over to Jarred?

I'll also add that all my thread subscriptions are gone. so when someone posts a new update in a thread I used to be subscribed to, I don't get sent and email....

peace and love

Jup, subscriptions are gone. All. Pity.
