Update:
idea came to me to try going to my installed 4.4 (almost never have used) to see if it was possib there, to go to forum & to try a post link & to copy a post link & then paste somewhere to try it & see if any difference from above reported & detailed issue, which i experience in mini next.
The 1st thing i found was as far as i could tell, 4.4 doesn't include any pathway to forums. That seemed odd...like, why not? So i thought maybe i could get to forum there via url. I didnt know right off what was the addy for forum so i just typed in what i thought might get me there & indeed it did! I navigated my way to mini forum & chose a topic & post to copy. Then i discovered no copy function there (wow, that sucks). So i found there, a way to display, but not copy, the findpost link. I wrote it down & then, still in 4.4, entered the link url into addy bar. It worked! It brought me straight to the top of the post i had chosen & linked back to! Finally, i proved that it at least SHOULD be possib to do, as ive been saying.
My conclusion from this test is that the result, at least as far as i can ascertain, seems to further confirm my theory that the issue, lies either in the forum and/or mini (the and part, meaning them not handshaking or "playing nice" w/ea other). But if im not mistaken, this latest test seems to point to mini next or 7, as where the bug (and i now def see as a bug) is, cuz the only difference from all the other reported tests, where the fault consistently occurs, is the mini version. All other elements seem to have been same, i.e., the forum, the findpost link structure, the device being used.
Could a dev PLEASE chime in & confirm/deny?
