Yesterday I posted in a thread in the Webmaster General forum. Today the thread is listed in the Apache forum (which makes more sense as the topic was redirecting in .htaccess). Funny thing is that the thread is not listed in "my threads", and that there is no "thread moved by system" indication in the Webmaster General thread list. Is this a new¦known bug, or just a glitch?

That's odd. Thanks for the heads up.

Pengi, your case is a known bug - I've fixed the link. :)

>>>there is no "thread moved by system" indication

Does BestBBS have the ability to move a thread without leaving a trail of it, or a shadow thread, telling that the topic was moved to another forum?

Yes, it does, but that is generally not an option to help both the original poster and the search engines.

The other point to note is that we do clean up the clutter of "moved" threads every-so-often.
