I think only I and Parker Clack didn't like certain things regarding managing
these types of threads. I had an earlier modification to prevent the
following: after initially creating the link thread, vB goes to the thread view
but is redirected to the link. My preference is to go to the forum view.
Firefly for whatever reason didn't use this in his latest update.

My last post fixed a similar situation I didn't like. This with regard to
sticking/unsticking the link thread. Same scenerio: if I stick an unstuck
thread, vB goes to the thread view but is redirected to the link. My code
modifications change that to the way I prefer.

As far as that last bit, that was too vague--sorry. I don't know if I put the
hack in incorrectly or I have a browser problem. But if I am browsing with
cookies (where only 's=' without the sessionidi shows up in my address bar),
trying to use the stick/unstick link takes me to an error window: Your
session appears to be invalid. Click here to create a new session. If I
browse without cookies, no error message. But I can eliminate the error all
the time with the following code change in forumdisplay.php (taken from
Firefly's first post).

	$thread['deletelink'] = '';
	if (empty($thread['link'])) {
		$thread['link'] = "showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$thread[threadid]";
	} else {
		$thread['link'] = $thread['link'];
		if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 6) {
			$thread['deletelink'] = "(<a href=\"postings.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=deletethread&threadid=$thread[threadid]\">delete</a> | <a href=\"postings.php?s=$session[dbsessionhash]&action=stick&threadid=$thread[threadid]\">stick / unstick</a>)";
		}
	}

Only a single word is changed: sessionhash-->dbsessoinhash.

I was a bit surprised no one has mentioned similar situations.
But this would corrected it if they did.
