Linking to another comment works, but doesn't

Fastidious

This reply to a comment works, if you hover the username mentioned at the beginning on the post, the user comment will have the animation. But clicking on the username, which is supposed to take you to the comment itself doesn't work. What is happening there?

Furthermore, I have found many replies to comments that aren't working (the link). Has something changed on the way reply to comments work?

Fastidious, testing it in here. This one is linking correctly. The one I refer to, like many others, is missing a number on the link. It shows as:

http://discuss.flarum.org/d//-/6

Pinging you, @Toby, in case something is broken and a ticked is preferable.

Yup, the latest update altered the format we use for post mentions which broke a few things.

Basically, we now allow for post mentions to refer to posts in different discussions, which means we need to store the discussion ID of the post being referred to along with the mention. The mentions in older posts don't have that information, which is why their links are broken.

I didn't bother to write an upgrade script for those old posts because it would probably be more trouble than it's worth. 😪
