Email URL Notification Hack

How can I change it so that when I (or a user) receives an email notification, it gives the actual URL (including #post) so that when you click on it, it goes directly to the message you haven't read. Now you have to wade through all the messages (and if you have a 30+post thread - that's a lot of messages).

Try this,
Open up the "notifyemail" template and change this line:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



To this:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



This is untested but it should work. Let me know.

After looking more closely I dont think that will work for multipage threads :(

You could do this:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



But that would just take them to the last post in their thread.

Maybe something like this would work:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



Im just guessing now, but hopefully one of those will work for you.

change the line in the notifyemail template to this:



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



That will go to the first unread post in the thread.
