I've been browsing around some threads and noticed that links to posts haven't been migrated to the new forum layout, so are in effect dead.

Example is in

viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4915

See Paul's signature that links to forum posts, and the fourth post down has a link to "Merlin's Magic Solution".

It's a good thing that I have a Deerstalker and a bloodhound to hand at all times....

Yes I believe this is correct and Rob did mention that the old links will no longer work unfortunately after the migration.
You would have to search and re bookmark them no the search has been indexed and working.

Unless Rob can advise further?

Unfortunately I could find no way of mapping a post url from the old forum to a post url on the new forum. Everything as it stands just redirects to the homepage.

No problem at all.

Merlin's Magic Solution was well worth searching for....
