Thread information missing in first four General Discussion threads

[Jonathan Scott]

At present, the first four threads I see in the General Discussion list have no date or last poster information (they show N/A), and do not automatically go to the next unseen post if I view them, but if I use an email notification link they go correctly to the new post.

I think those were moved today to a subforum under GD (Fun, Photos and Games Forum). I'll check that the redirects are okay now...

They're actually in other forums, but were originally posted in GD, so there's a shortcut left there. At least on mobile, there's a square with a NE pointing arrow that tells you that's what it is.

Yeah, the redirects work but take you to the first post in the threads. Instead, just go to the Fun, Photos and Games Forum and they if the thread is bold, when you click into it you should be taken to the first unread post.

Ah, it was the fact that the redirect didn't pick up the unread point that confused me. Thanks for the clarification.

I did go to "Feedback and announcements" before I posted to see if there had been some deliberate change, but I didn't see any announcement of that change.
