Bear in mind that these actions are 'once and for all' - if someone subsequently deletes an entry in LDM, the autothread is not removed - so too if we provide a connection in the linkbit to the thread, that connection will 'break' if the thread gets deleted.

Yeah I see what you mean. I guess this could be avoided by not allowing members to delete the links or threads created, but I guess they could always edit the link and that would cause a break. Is there any way to prevent users from editing their links altogether? If not, that's ok. I could live with the odd break here and there. I don't think it would be a major problem.

I would just use the comment system if it was set up with the standard controls and if it had the same "auto-notification" sent if a new post "comment" was added to all users subscribed to a thread (link)... but that would make it more like a forum and I'm not sure if that makes sense to do especially since the auto-create thread is already a plugin and works really well.

That would be so great.

Thanks again for all your help and time.
