Question

Redirect old-style forums urls

(http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.xxxxxxxx/ etc)

Will the new forums eventually redirect old-style forums urls?  For instance, http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b5c4e8/ should redirect to http://forums.adobe.com/community/lightroom/lightroom_sdk (etc).  My bookmarked threads, links within old threads, google search results (haha) are becoming largely useless...

    Hmmm.

    Am I the only person who has noticed that the long title of this thread has screwed up the layout of the entire page?

    i don't think they'll do that as it would likely require going through each thread and manually link it

    Zeno gets the star. It's a manual process. Volunteers are welcome to begin queuing up.

    Wow, that's pretty crazy!  Was the old forums database just copied into the new one?  They don't share database structures at all?

    I doubt it.  None of the old urls are any longer valid.

    Google should evetially update its own index once it discovers and indexes the new forum.
