Is there anyway i can redirect a post with mybb? Or maybe change the post link to another url?


I hope this makes sense.. I have tried searching the forums with no success.
Yeah, dont make to much sence to me.. So are you trying to make it so after someone posts a forum or thread it will redirect them to another url address?
Are you asking how to change the link to a thread?
In forum settings (for the forum the thread is in) you have to check "Allow HTML"

Then, add the following to the post you want the redirect in.

<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=PUT-ADDRESS-HERE">
</head>

I wouldn't allow html on an open forum, get a modification so only admins can use html if this is what you are trying to do.
I want to change this link:

To go to another web page instead of the post url. Can I do that with mybb?


I know that you can move the post to another part of the forum, and it will redirect it.


Thanks for the help ..
No, you can't, you'll need a plugin.
How do i get started on making plugins? Or can someone point me in the right direction?

Here you go:

I might create a plugin for this, if I have time.
