Why will my older "favorite" threads not come up? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

chevybill · 11-03-2005, 04:46 PM

I had several threads marked on my favorite's list for technical reference and since the board got overhauled I cannot access them anymore.

Is there a easy way to get them back or will I have to just search each individual page for the threads?

I think the revised board is great and I am in no way complaining.
All the changes have been extremely positive.

If you right click on the "favorite" and choose "properties", it will show you the address of the link. Towards the end of that address, you should see something like:
blahblahblah....vboard/showthread.php3?t=178923

If you remove the "3" that is right after .php and then click okay, it should make the thread work.
After you remove the three, it should look like:
blahblahblah.....vboard/showthread.php?t=178923
That is how I fixed all of my old ones.

Oh well search is back now if I really need to find something.

I know the feeling. I had to do the same for all my favorites, and the links in the "Events" forum....
