URL changing

Johnners · 14-01-2009, 08:50 PM

I use the forum.cricketweb.net URL to access the forums, however now when I click on a link (a thread, or forum), the URL changes to cricketweb.net/forum

Yep, you should use Cricket Web Forum . We stopped linking to forum.cricketweb.net with the new design in January last year, but I presume that those of you who use forum.cricketweb.net had it bookmarked before then.

Change your bookmarks and start using Cricket Web Forum and everything will be fine

How weird, because it had never done that to me before today. I was able to use forum.cricketweb fine, then today I could access the forum using that, but when I clicked on a link, it change the url :S

Not complaining FTR, just found it strange that it had never happened before.

I'm just glad I don't have to change all the links in my sig.

The forum was upgaded to vBulletin 3.8 today and vbseo was applied. That's why.

Nah, the old one just stuck in the fingers.

Will be hard to unlearn.

Swinging from the Vimes.

In other words, I agree with Albie Mork.

WoW, this new URL system is totally different. Does this mean that the old showthread=<number> URL no longer works?

My bookmark in work is for forum.cricketweb.net and is working fine

Good luck mate, went ok here in upgrading from vbulletin 3.6.4. Was painless

Now over to sorting out that damn awful vBulletin search facility.
