Sometimes I reload a thread and it's 404, thinking it was deleted.

Sometimes I reload a thread and it's 404, thinking it was deleted.

(post is archived)

It affects browsing as well.

Refresh page.
Post gets moved.
Click on link.
404 error.

That's because poal uses subnames in permalinks.

There's no simple ways to fix that, besides using the /p/[post-number]

couldn't you just search for the post number in the 404 page and redirect if it is found?

There's no need to do that. I just need to write an extra function that will use /p/postnumber if a post isn't located in a specific sub.

That way if a post has truly been deleted, it will throw a 404.
