CB Profile integration with Kunena upgrade link issue

Hello,
I'm testing upgrading from CB 2.9.1 to CB 2.9.2 - Kunena 6.2.3 to 6.3.2 - Joomla 4.4.2 to 4.4.5
In the profile page of a user, under the Forums tab, we get the links to the posts of that profile. While the links still work they have lost the post number and hence the links go to the first post of that topic. I see this is also happening here in Joomlapolis.
The old links were something like: /forum/forum-category/123-forum-topic?start=336#221733
While the new links are: /forum/forum-category/123-forum-topic 
If there's a handful of posts in the thread, it's not an issue, but with hundreds of responses in the topic, it's impossible to find. The option would be to search the forum, but that negates the function of the Forum Tab. 
I understand this may well be a Kunena issue,  but thought I'd bring it up here. 
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Tomás 

Kunena API for querying for every post as opposed to every topic was causing massive performance issues (nearly 10 second page load time on JP profiles and longer in our test environment with a million posts). So we switched it to showing only topics that you've posted in or created. The URLs it outputs are provided by Kunena's API. I believe topic URLs should at least link to first or last post, but aside from that yes you'll need to use the search just to the top-right in the topic itself to find a specific post.

Hi Kyle,
I'm not sure I understand correctly:

The list I'm referring to is the list of posts on someone's profile that person has made in the forum. Previously these were the same links.  And I can understand the delay problem on massive sites. 

The URLs it outputs are provided by Kunena's API. I believe topic URLs should at least link to first or last post, but aside from that yes you'll need to use the search just to the top-right in the topic itself to find a specific post.

Yes, I believe they link to the first or last post depending how you've set your post order. So, what I'm understanding is because Kunena's API is inefficient (or for whatever reason), just searching for the user's topics rather than posts,  this speeds up the query, understandably so. Hence, the link created, has just the topic information, and not the full topic and post information. Am I understanding that correctly? 

If that's so, do you see that changing in the foreseeable future? I'm asking not to put pressure but because I'm getting questions about it on a smaller site that I've already upgraded, and need to know to answer.  
Thank you,

Correct, it does not have individual message information just topic information so it can't link to a specific message.

We can consider maybe providing a parameter for you to toggle between topic and post list so you can choose to take the massive performance hit or not. Are you absolutely needing individual post history back? It's typically not common to display every single individual post, but just the topics as it does now.

Is it giving you an error of any kind?

My users tend to use it quite a bit, I was not aware until it went missing. The forum has a lot of usage and things get buried fast, and people like to follow what certain other users are saying. Right now they are resorting to the search function in the forum.

No error, it would allow me to upload, but I couldn't insert in the post and when published the file wasn't there either. Windows 11/Chrome, I also disabled adblockers, with no change.

Will review considering adding support for displaying individual posts again instead of topics in a future release, but for now I recommend they continue to use searching. The performance issues are quite substantial so it won't be the default behavior anymore if a parameter is implemented.

Strange, not sure what could be the cause unless you're exceeding the file size limits (maximum for images is 1 MB), but it should've just rejected the upload if that was the case. Possibly a bug in Kunena causing it.
