Perma-link for mod pages

Recommended Posts

I just noticed that my download link was invalidated the last time that I uploaded a new version to Curse: "http://www.curse.com/ksp-mods/kerbal/221022-tac-life-support" became "http://www.curse.com/ksp-mods/kerbal/221022-tac-life-support-v0-10-28aug". Is there a way to link to the page so that I do not have to update my links all the time?

Thanks! :cool:

This is a side effect of renaming the project, if you change the name back it'll fix it in the short term.

This is a definite problem, and I'll be making sure we adjust this behavior in iteration 16.

It really should just parse the numbers at the beginning of the URL. A link to a forum thread here is fairly robust, all three of the following work:

http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/94635-Perma-link-for-mod-pages

http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/94635

http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/94635-Random-Incorrect-Text

So changing the title of a thread has no effect on links to it (which is great for threads, like those about mods, which have frequent title changes).

Slightly off-topic Kaelten, but can you comment on how progress on support for KSP in the Curse client software is coming?

Because of the number in the URL from Curse, I assumed (incorrectly) that it would work like the forums. I have fixed my link, but it would be really nice if I did not have to do that all the time.

Thank you :cool:!
