This is already a definite improvement.

However, I see something weird there: clicking the "Previous page" link gets me
to a regular post page - I thought it was a previous page of threads. Clicking
"Next page" from there led me to the current post page, not the threads page.

Perhaps the usual http://openeuphoria.org/Euforum/ should keep leading to the
most recent posts page. A link from there woul go to most recent threads. The
most recent and least recent thread pages would both link to that most recent
post page. Makes sense?
