PBS Forum

Hi Forum team,

I clicked on the link to pay for my BX treasures which just arrived. The link is
https://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbsforum/index.php?page=BXpay*
and that gives this error:
"An error has occurred
This article is not available. You may not have permission to see the article, it isn't active, hasn't been approved yet, or simply does not exist."

When I remove the * the link is fine. My guess is some markup messed up the link text. 

Thank you,
Gastil

Gastil - where is that link, on paper, in an email or on a web page.

I wonder if we can save the situation by making it redirect to the real page.

The link broken by the * at the end is Bridget's BX post on this page:

If you can edit it to remove the * at the end of the link, that will fix it.

I'm not seeing how to link to a particular post within a topic. Scroll down to the one titled "US BX 493 CLOSED" then scroll down to the post before that (which displays below that on my view but I've noticed the above/below is not the same for everyone.) 

Or just search for the text within page of "Orders should be paid upon receipt through the PBS website at:"
The broken link is right below that. 

An easy fix. I'm just too lazy to figure out how to edit someone else's post. 

Gastil - thanks, I have fixed it. Down the bottom of posts there are options Quick Edit, More->Modify.

Your link took me right there. But right click on message times (here) lets you go to individual messages.

Which, on other peoples posts, of course only can be done by Administrators and Moderators - and will be noted above the post. Just to make sure noone  is afraid their posts have been altered in secret.
