Viewing topics in the legacy discourse server

[Goldthing]

Is anyone else having trouble viewing old forum threads found by searching?
Whenever I get a search result (eg. http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=8113) and click on it I get redirected back to https://legacy.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/ this is very frustrating as I cannot look anything up.

The problem appears to be with viewtopic.php as I can click on discussions on the forum and read them, it's just search that seems broken.

The previous discourse server has been decommissioned. Instead, we mirrored the pages and they currently reside @ https://legacy.imagemagick.org/discourse-server. It will take a few weeks to a few months for the new links to make their way into the search engines indexes (e.g. Google).

So how would we find a thread/topic in the meantime? In particular I was trying top find the thread for "Inversion of Film Negative Discussion" (DDG linked it as https://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=32867) but even searching directly on the legacy server couldn't find it.

I expect I will have to create a new thread (can't find anything similar here).

See https://legacy.imagemagick.org/discourse-server~/viewtopic882c.html.

I get a 404 error for that link

Fixed the link. Try again.

That link update worked. Thanks.

Of course, the thread didn't help though. But that's a topic for a different thread (already posted elsewhere).
