Hey phpdesk, I am working with vB 4.2 PL3 and the Separate Sticky and Normal Thread hack.
The fix you attached to your addons does not work anymore in this version.
Would you mind taking a look and update it if possible?

Had to uninstall this.

All I want is to redirect threads, this mod is screwing up my forumdisplay, all the thread listings are different when using this mod. That is so pointless, what's with all the extra changes to thread listings when all we want in this mod is to redirect threads?

This is the reason there are issues with the separate sticky/normal threads mod, because this mod is trying to do 100 things it's not even supposed to do.

Get rid of all the extra junk in this add-on, so it does only what it's supposed to do, and you'll probably get more installs/donations for this.

Looking forward to a fix at some point. I don't want to change my forumdisplay or thread listings AT ALL, all I want to do is redirect threads.

1/5 from me.

I'd like to see all the extra features EXCEPT for the redirect and usergroup options disappear, or have the option not to use them at all.

Inline mode and separate fix not working with this hack

Hi, thansk for the mod. I have a problem with Mobile style, I have 4.2.3. In mobile style the threads acting as URL redirect dont appear in forums, even if they are sticky.

Target Thread appear ok on mobile, but not the threads acting as URL redirect.

Thanks for help.
