Lots of problem-less threads end in a number.
I'm not quite sure what you meant. It's not about numbers.
The problem seems to be a particular word - "
star".
When a thread is first posted it has a URL like this (our current one):
http://www.crosswordsolver.org/forum/430667/404-not-found?thread-page=
Once in the thread, if you click the title
Home » Forum »404 not found
the URL changes to this, dropping "
?thread-page=":
http://www.crosswordsolver.org/forum/430667/404-not-found
Following pages have an offset, e.g.;
http://www.crosswordsolver.org/forum/430667/offset/10
This is quite handy if you wish to send someone a link to a particular post.
Just subtract 1 from the post number & change the offset accordingly.
Unfortunately, this site has disabled all HTML code & provided only 3 tags for
B,
U,
I.
Makes it difficult, if not impossible, to display any other characteristics.
I hope I got it right.
Cheers, mate.
