Can't find my past topic... so here it goes, a little again. I browse this board and decide to link someone to a thread. Currently:
- click ...
- click permalink
- copy the topic:lalalala bit from urlbar or from the page
- switch tab
- type [[
- paste
- type |
- switch tab
- copy topic title
- switch tab
- paste
- type ]]
...a long path. :-) Now, it is the same with old way, except that it doesn't take me to single-thread view to perform all these operations. This perhaps makes it easier to link to multiple threads at once.
Also, when linking to a thread before (with classic wiki markup pages), it was one of many on a page. It was not a single thread.
Perhaps steal design from here: https://docs.python.org/2/reference/lexical_analysis.html#physical-lines -- move mouse over the headlines and watch what changes :-) (it used to even highlight a currently selected header with yellow background, but no longer does).
