Question's in the title really (except the question mark, which wouldn't fit).
When scrolling down the list of threads, I can see some that have been moved say MOVED: [Thread title], when clicking on that thread a little message pops up saying it's been moved and click here to view it. Now, I know it's been moved as it's in the title so can clicking on the thread title take us to the new location please?

It does that already, as an example I just clicked on SimpoTwo's thread in the lounge, clicked on the link and went straight to the thread in the hifi bit.

Or have I missed something? confused
They mean the link on the forum page, not the link in the thread, so that you only have to click once rather click into the thread then click the link. IYSWIM

It's a good idea though, so I'll have a look and see if it can be done.

I think what they mean (or i do at least) is that when you click to open the actual thread, it just takes you straight to the thread wherever it has been moved to - rather than opening the thread in the lounge for example and then providing another link to the open thread.

So you;d just click on the moved thread in the lounge and it woudl just open, but you'd be viewing it in a different forum.

If that makes sense.
