Linking to a Forum Thread

I might be doing this wrong as the link does not seem to work. In the box do I just add the number?

For example, if I wanted to link to the following URL... https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...5034-Map-Tiles

Would I just add: 35034 or 35034-Map-Tiles

Have you tried just adding the whole URL already? (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/...)

Yup, I tried adding the whole URL and it didn't work. So I just tried the number... which seems to work.
Is that how it is meant to work?

Actually both should work, the full link and just using the part after php? :) Initially only the latter worked, but they added that also the full link works :) But maybe it is still erroneous? If I recall correctly, then there is some preview of the link in the manage items section. Does the preview of the link not look correctly if you paste the full link? :)

At first, I just copy-n-paste the full URL in there, and it didn't work. So I changed it to just the number and it worked.

If you can post or link some screenshots, I can take another look at it, as I haven't been able to recreate the issue myself.

A little difficult as I have already made the change to make it work. But I'll keep an eye on it when I do the descriptions for other products. Assuming someone figures out why I can't upload product builds.
