"Full Thread" link on Special:NewMessages leads to nowhere: anchor not working
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

I have a link like http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Support&offset=20101018214318#Add_<br>_in_pop-up_translation_panel_8106 which doesn't go the thread. I don't understand why the threads itself are so seldomly linked instead of the pages they are in.

When you had this issue, was the thread even on the page? I'm trying to figure out if the issue is with the offset or with the anchor.

The thread is currently third last in http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Support, at that time it must been near the top I think.

The problem seems to be the unescaped <br> in the link anchor, which should be correctly encoded (aka {{anchorencode: }})

I agree with the <p> problem. Testing in many threads at test2 and mediawiki.org "Full thread" links sends you to the right position.

Resolving as WORKSFORME.

I agree with the <p> problem.

Escaping of summaries is totally inconsistent in LQT, there's probably several reports about it.

Offset works; with the updated offset (in URL), the anchor now works -> VERIFIED, but restricting the bug summary.
