This has happened on two links so far. When I click them or right click and choose new tab, it simply leads back to the thread I was in.

I'm using Firefox 46.0.1 right now, but it's updating.

One more test.

I tested this using Chrome, Edge, and Firefox and was unable to replicate the issue.

Can you send me a PM with the link so that I can check it?

Here's some more insight. The links that show when I hover is right, but when I click, it changes the url to the thread's URL. I'll send you what I can.

I have been having this happen for awhile also. Don't know why. But if I go back and click it aging it routs to the link. All I'm using is a Web browser, not a brand name one like Firefox or explore

I will talk to our tech team on Monday to see if I can track down this issue.

In the meantime (make sure you know your password first) please consider clearing your cache and cookies and let me know if it changes anything once you are logged back in.

All right. I do that after the range.

Just as an FYI. Not happening with me using Firefox.

 

[Robert_S]

Cleared the cache and it didn't help. The test links still bring me back here.

For sure weird things can happen sometimes.

Cricket will do her best to try and figure out why that happening. :yup:

You can take her at her word.

I just started a thread on a mall shooting and the links worked correctly for me.

If those links go to another gun forum site that is probably why they come back here. Competitive links were wiped out before and I'm guessing they still might be.
