[BUG]: Equivalent of [go to deal] added to "Misc" thread

• 
  fanpages1 year, 2 weeks ago #1Show comment toolsReply

  My "Misc" thread [ http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/battlefield-bad-company-2-killzone-624991 ] now has a hyperlink in the top right corner of the thread description as if it were a "Deal" thread with a [go to deal] button.
  
  The address for the link is:
  [ http://www.hotukdeals.com/visit?m=20222&q=624991 ]
  
  This redirects to:
  [ http://www.company.co.uk ].
  
  Is somebody adding code in situ to connect thread titles to web sites (& has forgotten to ignore "Misc" threads)?
  
  BFN,
  
  fp.

  I changed my mind, put the fix out now. Should be all good! Let me know if there's a problem. Thanks, Rest Easy, Citizens.

  That's OK... it wasn't a problem.
  
  I was going to ask if you used my thread to "test" on.
  
  I don't mind if you do... I just wondered after I reported a problem with it over the last weekend:
  
  (See comments #52 to #61, inclusive)
  
  [ http://www.hotukdeals.com/feedback/where-did-thread-go-thread-1205924?p=14410477 ]
  
  
  However, somebody else has just reported that their "Misc" thread has a similar issue to the one described at the top of this thread.
  
  "How did my `Misc` thread get turned into an advert?"
  
  
  [EDIT after seeing comment #5]: Oh, OK... :) [/EDIT]

  PS. HD: My thread still has "MORE company deals" on the same line as the "Tags" list (that also needs "attention" as "PS3" is still the only clickable tag).

  I noticed that as well. I'm looking into it. Thanks for the reports :).

  I removed the "more company deals" from that particular thread. That shouldn't happen in this instance. If you notice it anywhere else in your perusals (where it shouldn't be), please let me know so I can fix it! Thanks for the reports. :)

  I have seen a few today, actually.
  
  I'll see if I can locate them for you again now.

  Here is one example:
  
  [ http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/chrome-firefox-addons-for-hukd-1213979 ]
  
  MORE Firefox deals

  That one would be an instance where that link would be okay, as they are actually talking about Firefox. In the other thread, "Company" was not, in fact, referring to "company" the merchant.

  My thread was discussing "Battlefield: Bad Company 2".
  
  However, both are "Misc" threads; not "Deal" threads.
  
  Either should not have the "MORE... deals" link.

  HD: [ http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/which-film-would-like-remade-updated-1225885 ]
  
  The title of this thread is "Which film would you like to see remade or updated?".
  
  Under the thread description is a link...
  
  VIEW see deals
  
  
  Firstly, the "Misc" thread is not a deal.
  
  Secondly, the keyword association to SeeFIlmFirst.com needs some attention.

  I agree. Although I do find it a little bit humorous. Let me see what I can do.

  Thanks... almost as funny as the UK & the US... separated by a common language!
  
  Humour [UK] = Humor [US]
  
  Humorous (both UK & US) :)

  Ah damn. Thanks. I googled it before I posted it, but that was insufficient.
