Links to page 2, 3 etc. don't work

When a thread exceeds a certain number of replies* it is split into multiple pages. The topic list has links to jump directly to these pages, but they don't work -- no matter which one you click, you're sent to page 1. (I've been using the forums for several months and as far as I know this has never worked correctly.)

*please raise the threshold # of replies, it's far too low

# 1

Bhanu, please add this to the bug list. It's been broken for months. If you look at the HTML, each page link actually points to the same place!

As for the # of replies per page, it's currently 15. 40 is a more common standard on the forums I read.

I think it is in the buglist, Bhanu or Joe verified it and mentioned it was added to the buglist.

I wanted to report this bug but saw it was already reported here. It's annoying!

This is a known issue with no ETA on a fix. We have to prioritize the bugs that come in, and while we would like to fix them all, we have to first focus on the pri 1 & 2s.

Thanks

This issue is what constantly hits me here.

The fix takes approx 2 seconds:

Change the PageIndex string to PageID. There is no such PageIndex property so the page always the first one.

I find such prioritization absurd where issues that hit all the time and are simple to fix aren't fixed on the spot.
