Quoting sometimes uses the new /post/pid permalinks, and sometimes doesn't.

    This is two "Quote"s, pressing the button twice in a row. The first has a link of /post/884734, but the second has a link of /topic/19874/quoting-sometimes-uses-the-new-post-pid-and-sometimes-doesn-t/1.

    And here's another quote. Also not a permalink.



  • tl;dr: the first time you quote something in a reply, you get a permalink; adding more quotes to the same reply results in a non-permalink. It doesn't matter if you clicked "Reply" or "Quote"; the first one gets a permalink and all subsequent ones do not.

    @anotherusername is it to do with whether you open the reply with a quote or do it when it's already open?

    First quote, but I had the composer open. Linking to /topic/19874/quoting-sometimes-uses-the-new-post-pid-and-sometimes-doesn-t/1



  • @Jaloopa Good find.

    Okay, so if a composer has already been opened and you quote something, the link isn't a permalink. (Including when you've used the red boob to hide the composer.)

    If you "Discard" the post you're working on, then quoting something creates a new composer and you get a permalink.

    @ben_lubar I can tell you right now what the cause is.

    There's two options for generating a link when hitting Quote, depending on if you have a reply open already or not, and the only one where the link generation was changed was when you start a new reply.

    The other option is just a few lines further down in the same file. Really, the fact that it was missed is, to be frank, shit.

    I'm much less surprised by it being missed since the notifications fiasco.
