[James Socol [:jsocol, :james]]

Like bug 673167 for the forums app, if I go to /kb/foo/discuss/1234, and 1234 is a discussion on bar, not foo, redirect to /kb/bar/discuss/1234.

Since the article for that discussion thread has since moved, that link is now a "page not found ... 
...which is a good example of what this bug is about!

The related discussion thread is now here:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/password-manager-remember-delete-change-passwords/discuss/1637

I found it by going to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-remember-usernames-and-passwords/discuss (which is now empty), then going to the "Article" link to get the new url and adding /discuss/1637 to the end.

NI Joni & Madalina
Is any Admin tracking this, and if so where is it listed?
AFAIK the whiteboard tracking is obsolete and sumo bugs only progress if a Champion manages to track them and make a case for them.

I thought this was fixed a while ago. Just added this to the Prioritized backlog spreadsheet.

That article title was renamed yet again so the kbforum thread is again a "page not found".  The moved thread is now here: 
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/password-manager-remember-delete-change-and-import/discuss/1637
