Issue with links in forum emails

Is anyone else having a problem with the emails they get from the forum, e.g. for PMs or subscribed thread notifications?

Starting around the beginning of November, the URLs included in these messages are broken. Now they just show the relative path instead of the full URL (i.e., /forums/private.php instead of http://www.project1999.org/forums/private.php).

Sounds like another stealthy change, much like removing forum tagging [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah, same thing happened to me.

Got a PM on this from someone else who is having the same problem and is having a hard time registering because of it:

Fun Stuff. I can't even post about the problem!

I had a hard time registering too. What I did was just tag what shows up on the email for the second URL on to the end of www.project1999.org That allowed me to put my activation code in. Have the person that sent you PM try that. It said I didn't use the correct URL a couple of times but after a few tries it accepted it.

Thanks for the help Phobus / ManticSquee.
