Wrong link...

Okay, just decided to inform you Buck, but it seems that the "last post" link in Forum index for news thread "Jade Empire: Special Edition Digital Download"
is wrong...
Instead of taking me to that thread it takes me to "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion PS3 Screenshots" news thread...

Now, when I hoover my mouse over that button, the link shown seems to be correct, but still it takes me to that Oblivion thread...

If I click the "Last Post" button for that Jade Empire thread in the news forum, I get the "No Thread Specified" error...

Yet, the normal link to the thread seems to work correctly, just not those last post -buttons...

The reason why the "last post" link doesn't appear to be working correctly is because all of the original threads in GameBanshee News are not considered posts by vBulletin. All of the news is submitted through an external script for the main website, which in turn inserts the same news into MySQL for vBulletin to "see." The news isn't actually posted through conventional means in vBulletin, so each original news item isn't logged as a post. Therefore, the only "last posts" in that forum are going to be user comments.

Hopefully that makes sense . The only way to fix it would be to totally overhaul the way news is submitted and I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Okay, that explains it...

And no need to change anything, I just thought there was something broken as I supposed it shouldn't have been working that way...

But thanx for the explanation
