Is there a way to find a topic by number?

[sterretje]

When helping people on the forum I often write and save code. My approach is to save code in a directory with the topic number.

So for e.g. https://forum.arduino.cc/t/creating-a-remote-control-for-multi-mode-light-system/1166322 I create a directory 1166322 and take it from there.

If I want to find that topic back by number, how do I go about it? Yes, I can put the URL in the code and use that but if I forget I don't seem to be able to find the topic back.

I dont know how to do it either so I save the URL

Note that you could try a static URL adding the search number after

https://forum.arduino.cc/t/

ie https://forum.arduino.cc/t/1166322 will take you there

Creating A Remote Control for Multi-Mode Light System

I want to make a remote to control a light array. I want 6 modes: pattern 1, pattern 2, pattern 3, accelerometer controlled, always on, and off. I am using two HC-05 Bluetooth modules to control the system. I want to be able to send a signal with the remote, the remote turns off after I've sent the message to save power, and be able to switch modes at any time (ie, if it's in the middle of the first pattern, I can still switch to accelerometer). I have tested every mode and bluetooth, and they a…

But it’s still a URL - so if you need to bother with an URL, just copy the full thing

Great workaround. Basically what I was looking for; I don't mind the typing of the URL.

Thanks.

OK great

I usually also use the bookmark for threads I'm providing active input to, that lets me find them easily by going to my avatar and selecting bookmarks

once the topic is solved, I remove the bookmark.

@J-M-L

I save the URL

Same here. First line in the IDE/simulation would be:

// https://forum.arduino.cc/t/is-there-a-way-to-find-a-topic-by-number/1167016
