The "Adding a New Thread or New Post" Thread In This Forum Broken?

It looks like JDiver might be working on this already (based on the "test thread" that was created), but when I click on the thread in this forum entitled "Adding a New Thread or New Post", it brings up an error message:
This page isn’t working Flyertalk.com redirected you too many times.
I'm guessing the title of the thread ending with the words "New Post" is causing problems with the URL that is automatically generated. If possible, I think the solution would be to remove the words "New Post" from the title of that thread.

Yep, I have tech working on it, although it was working yesterday. If it is a title issue, I can't load the page to edit the title.

That thread, and a new one, became unusable when I added illustrations through the “Manage Attachments” tool.

P.S. But I see ow it’s a title issue.

Its "by design" - a robust feature - if a thread title explicitly ends with the words "new post" it will cause the loop. Title has been changed and sooner than later we'll finally patch this bug.

Thanks.

If you can resuscitate the still broken thread Ill do some refitting, merging, etc. to get it on one thread.

I thought I did and it should be working - is it not for you? I just renamed it and it should be loading fine.
