Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 21, 20168 yr Hello, It would be useful to have an option when you create an announcement, that you can insert a link for example, so when someone clicks on the title of the announcement instead that he's redirected to the 'full written announcement' he's taken to the thread you would like.

September 21, 20168 yr Author Indeed. Currently I made an announcement to point users out to a thread (and not have Mod that force them to see it but more like if they feel like) however they only can access that link when they are first taken to the full written announcement itself, and then they have to click again on the link to finally see the thread. Maybe it is more easy if you make a small announcement or if you have the option, that you add a link so they are redirected to that link instead. The announcement system is perfect but can be even better with that little option (for me).
September 21, 20168 yr Oh, I see - Yes, I agree that would be useful indeed, especially if it was a togglable option when creating an announcement (Set Announcement to Redirect To URL? YES/NO)
September 25, 20168 yr If you'd rather not wait for IPS to implement your idea or definitively state that it isn't happening, there is a plugin:
April 29, 20186 yr I would love to see this too, there is a Club I want to link to directly using Announcements.
