Suggestion Cross post between both GT boards

    Just a thought, I think it would be handy if there was some way to create a post which was linked to on both the Carbon GT and Bamboo GT boards. For example the post I just made on the Bamboo GT board about the new remotes effects both boards but I could only post it on one (as far as I could see). I would like to be able to post it on both boards but don't really want to create two separate posts. I hope that makes sense.

    Yeah, I see where you're coming from, I'm familiar with cross posting from Reddit, but on a small forum I'm not sure how good an idea cross posting is as it will split the content across two threads making it harder to follow. It's easier to follow all in one place, and that one thread will still appear on the new posts page when members look for new content and show up in search results.

    I am open to amending how the board forums are laid out though.

    Currently there's

    Carbon GT
    Bamboo GT
    Carbon
    Bamboo

    It's looking like the GT forums will likely be a lot more busy than the non-GT ones going forward.

    We could merge some of them, or even all of them and use thread prefix's instead, kind of like the 'Suggestion' prefix on this thread. Need to have a think about that.


    Unless there was a way to perhaps have a shortcut to a thread in forum 1, appear in forum 2. So it's visible from both, but all the content stays in the same thread.

    Yeah that last bit is what I was talking about, I don't want two different threads, just a way to make one thread viewable on two boards
