Hello,
I'm sorry if I am in the wrong board. But hey I believe this is the right one because its for suggestions. :p


Forum=....
Link To Suggestion= All Forums that have their forum name changed...


Anyways uhm I have been thinking about this for a while now. When people change their forum address, for the old address there should be like a link back or something. Something that will give the link to the NEW Forum or something.

Yes Yes I know you guys are extremely busy atm and I shouldn't be suggestion things because of that but yeah you guys can do this whenever your available or done...if you want obviously. :)

So you mean like a redirect or similar? So that the old url would redirect to the new one?

I'm not saying it can't be done but the only issue there is, if a member renamed there site 5 times that means it would have 5 domains all redirecting to the 6th.

I suppose if there were some restrictions such as only allowing one redirect  per site if it was renamed.

I have no idea if the system code cope with this type of setup but i'm sure it could be something to be looked into. (Maybe in 2016 :P )

It was sort of a joke. :) But i doubt it would be something that was going to be looked into anytime soon.
