Posted June 23, 201510 yr I've noticed some (maybe the new ones) embedded internal links have the prefix Reply to. Why not just the title? I figured this was some new way to jump to the reply box but nope. Sounds like an action. What if we just want to read it? What if it is locked does it detect that and change the language since you can't reply? I suppose it is easy to remove if we don't like it. Example: Edited June 23, 201510 yr by chilihead
June 23, 201510 yr Because you are linking directly to the post itself, not the topic. Note these differences: Edited June 23, 201510 yr by Ryan Ashbrook
June 23, 201510 yr Author @Ryan Ashbrook ohhh it is a noun not a verb... I think that is going to cause confusion. I saw it as by clicking I was replying or it was telling me to reply. This is "a" reply in the topic.We're so used to seeing "Reply to this topic..." at the bottom it reads as a verb. Edited June 23, 201510 yr by chilihead
June 23, 201510 yr Author It is also false to say "Reply to" if it is the first post of a thread.Yes, in my example above you are correct. I used the post link from the share icon and it is not a reply. That part would be a bug.
June 24, 201510 yr Author The language is different in search results too: Post on Topic title here Reply to on the forum Post on in search. The grey color does help though. I never thought that was a verb, even though it could be, but the color helps. These should probably be consistent terms though.
