Not 100% sure & is the issue though it certainly isn't correct after a ? in a URL.

If the page loads but it simply isn't going to the specific post, you have to add #post2355813 at the end of the URL (from the example above.)

It is the #[post#] that brings the page to the correct spot in the browser window.

That does exist in the link sent via PM. The Mod is working right except for the & being inserted into the link.

Sometimes you land on the post, sometimes on the OP of the thread the post is in.

Here's a correct example of what her board actually sends to recipients of reputation:

PHP Code:

http://kat2forum.com/forum/showthread.php?12461-The-Draft&p=222938#post222938 


As you can see, all the information is there to direct the browser to the specific post, but that information comes after the "&" in the malformed link.

Here's the code in question, from the plugin:

PHP Code:

  // Create link to post
  $sk_repnotif_postlink = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . "/" . fetch_seo_url('thread', $threadinfo, array('p' => $postid)) . "#post$postid";


//

I would suggest changing the line to:

$sk_repnotif_postlink = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . "/showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$postid#post$postid";

That works fine in VB4 although it doesn't produce the SEO friendly URL in the browser- but as this URL will never be seen by search engines it isn't a problem.

Whatever the bug it seems to be with the fetch_seo_url() function, not the code from this mod.

I will try the line you suggest and report back, thanks for the help!

Hey BoP5..... That did the trick, no more mean old "amp;" stuff in the URLS, and several test reps have confirmed we now go straight to the post that was repped.

YOU FIXED IT.

THANK YOU!
