improvement suggestions

[FransM]

I have two improvement suggestions.
They both are for the "congratulations" page.

I feel it would be nice if there would be a link to the private forum page for that problem on the congratulations page. Rationale: I (and presumably others) would like to check how others solved the problem and learn if there is a simpler solution.

And it would also be nice if on the same page I could unpin the problem.
I'm not sure how others use pins but for me it are problems I am working on or am interested in to start working.

Now for both things I need to go back to the problems page.

After you get the "congratulations" page, you can just refresh the page and you will be taken straight back to the problem page. It will view as a solved problem, so you can remove the pin there and/or visit the discussion thread. In addition, in the box with the picture of Euler that says, "We hope that you enjoyed solving this problem. Please do not deprive others...", the bottom sentence has a link directly to the discussion thread.

Oh, I totally missed the link in the box and I didn't know about the refresh.
Thanks for pointing me to it.

Not sure if this is doable w/o a lot of effort but, here it goes. It would be good to have a link on the problem page to the clarification thread for that problem, if it exists. I know is easy to find the thread by searching but thought it would make it easier for folks. Just my two cents.

It's a nice idea, but unfortunately there is no way to automate a direct link to the threads here (if they exist), as there is no correlation between the problem ID and the thread ID used by this board software. Even providing a link to perform a search doesn't seem to quite work as expected.

For example, search.php?fid[]=50&sf=titleonly&sr=topics&keywords=123 will successfully return the clarification topic for problem 123, but search.php?fid[]=50&sf=titleonly&sr=topics&keywords=070 will not find the topic for 070, even though it exists here.

Moreover it isn't possible any more to read in this forum without being logged in (why?). That would additionally complicate things, wouldn't it?
