Terry, there's a problem with adding topics to the Chatboards - if someone tries to add a new topic, they can create one in the usual way. However, if someone then clicks on the link, they gat taken to a page that says the page is out of range.

For example, there's a new topic created today (4 July) by player Mountainfree which is in the main menu for the General chatboard:

https://www.funtrivia.com/bb.cfm?boardid=13

The topic is called:

Gold memebership (sic)

Clicking on that takes me to:

https://www.funtrivia.com/bb.cfm?action=details&qnid=31441&boardid=13&start=0

Which says:

Page is our of range. 0 (sic)

Can you fix it?

Could this be in any way related to the problem with posting new replies to existing threads, reported in the Minor Issues thread? Just checked, and it still takes one to an otherwise blank page https://www.funtrivia.com/bb.cfm saying Your Response Has Been Posted and not to said post.

The adding a new post to an existing thread problem still exists. (I just tested it.)

This copy/paste gives a bit of an idea.

Can you make it so we are taken back to the thread, and our new post, the way it used to work? Please and pretty please smile
