I can confirm this. It also opens in a new page. If you check "Forum Posts" block in Admin>Builders>PagesBlocks>Homepage, it shows "url of RSS feed" as: {SiteUrl}forum/?action=rss_all This is the code (Firebug) associated with the link in the homepage <a class="rss_read_more_link" target="_blank" href="">Forum Posts</a> The _blank explains the new page, and the target seems to redirect back to this block. So this link doesn't seem to be designed to direct you to the forum, but to reopen this block. Perhaps this is to allow a member to see more posts from the homepage if you have placed a limit of 4, say, when the page first loads. But I would prefer it to open in the same page. Not sure where the file is to change that. Anyone know? Someday, Someway. |
Thank you for reporting, ticket created: http://www.boonex.com/trac/dolphin/ticket/2221 Changeset: http://www.boonex.com/trac/dolphin/changeset/14516 If you applied the fix - recompile Orca Forum language files. Rules → http://www.boonex.com/terms |
on my site all of the pages link right back to the main page immediately- so I can't access another members profile or any of the other features, without simply getting redirected to home right away. This happens even from my admin screen and it's very frustrating. What to do? |
Alex, Would this patch also fix a but that occurs from my home page forum posts? The linking urls exlcue a # that is needed and it opens a new broswer tag(very annoying). Example: Instead of linking to http://www.thisisart.com.au/forum/#topic/The-Trudie-Alfred-Bequest-Ceramic-Scholarships.htm it links to: http://www.thisisart.com.au/forum/topic/The-Trudie-Alfred-Bequest-Ceramic-Scholarships.htm 9with a newly opened browser tag) Or am I looking at another problem?
Thanks Rob |

Thanks Rob I don't think it's a bug, but there have been a few topics in the past about changing this behaviour. You should search the forums. BoonEx Certified Host: Zarconia.net - Fully Supported Shared and Dedicated for Dolphin |
