404 Error for Hot Posts

Ok, I waited a while and no one seems to be reporting this.

If going to the second page (Older link) of any hotposts there is a 404 error.

Using the Boston board as an example (which I don't care about losing the hot posts)

I can get to subsequent pages by changing the url from

http://www.chowhound.com/new_posts/index/12?page=1

to

http://www.chowhound.com/hot_posts/12?page=1

When trying to mark hot posts as read, I get the error reported in User Help

    Similar problem:

    When I googled for "kartoffel rosti" (with the quotes) I got two links to ch:

    http://www.chowhound.com/boards/general26/messages/98092.html

    http://www.chowhound.com/boards/gener...

    Both links gave a 404

      Those are both old links to the old software version of the boards. Unfortunately they no longer work.

      It's fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.

        The "mark as read" problem is fixed. Thank you.

        Clicking on the "Older" link to get to topics 41 + still returns the 404 error.

          Yes, I'm still getting 404 error to get to "older" hot posts.

        I've been struck by this, also. If I try to mark the posts as read, I get the error message. But when I go back to the boards, the posts are gone. More troubling is not getting to older posts on Hot Posts.
