    Default Re: Thread link not working

    It's a problem with special characters in the thread name, which translate into special characters in the URL. Some browsers have issues with that, and it's a problem I've had to deal with before on the site. There's no easy automated solution because changing settings with either cause problems for some people or disable some features. So, the best solution is just to make sure that threat titles don't include special characters. In the case of the TWR2 thread, the problem was being caused by some kind of unusual hyphen. I just replaced that character with a colon and that resolved the problem. If you encounter issues with other threads, please let me know and I'll edit the title in a similar way.
