Template HistLink

Purpose

Creates a link to a forum post for the templates HistC, HistF, HistR and HistS.

Parameter

  • 1st: the date to show
  • 2nd: a post ID or combination of thread/post ID with trailing coding character

Codings for 2nd parameter:

if only an ID is given a link to MersenneForum is generated (default)
new linkformat: post-id > 670000 according to forum update in Aug. 2024
if first character is F the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to Free-DC
if first character is P the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to PrimeGrid
if first character is N the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to NFS@Home
if first character is Y the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to Yahoo Group primenumbers
if first character is M the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to MersenneForum for a first post of a thread if the above type do not work correctly
if first character is the thread and post ID separated by '#' generates a link to [https://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs/:if a wrong or no 2nd parameter is given, an error is shown

Important note

If an old (before 2005) MersenneForum post is referenced -and- is the first post in a thread -and- the thread is more than one page long, the first post on the final page is incorrectly shown. The user must manually change the page number to 1 to see the correct post.
