How to get the URL for a SharePoint Discussion Board entry?

Question

How do you retrieve the URL for a discussion board item? That is, the URL displayed when you mouse over the subject line (once the list has been added to the page as a web part).

Answer 1

Are you asking how to find the URL for an individual discussion in a discussion board? Or an individual reply to a discussion?

Answer 2

You can give just subject name like http://site/discussion/lists/discussionboard/discusontitlename or subject

protected void gvForum_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) { SPListItem item = e.Row.DataItem as SPListItem; Label lblTitle = e.Row.FindControl("lblTitle") as Label; HtmlAnchor aURL = e.Row.FindControl("aURL") as HtmlAnchor; if (item != null) { if (lblTitle != null && aURL != null) { aURL.HRef = "~/" + item.Url; lblTitle.Text = item["Title"].ToString();

            }
        }
