I know, I was talking about the default values.
The problem is that the thread pages are defined by a relative page number (...&fpart={pagenumber}). This page number depends on the value you have set for yourself in the preference page.
So, if I have 20 posts per page and you have 10 posts, my link to a specific thread page won't work for you.
This is also the case in other forum softwares but with IPB for example, at least the very first post on a specific page is correct because the link to the page doesn't include the page number but just the first post... the rest of the page is displayed according to the profile settings of the user.

Sooo... now, the most users don't change the default values, I usually don't do that either because it's easier if most of the users share the same settings. But in this case, that doesn't make much sense because 10 is too low. smile



Another improvement: In the extended reply page, it would be nice to have the flat view of the last {default number of} replies in the thread.
Currently, only the post you reply to is displayed.
