1. make a forum private

2. embed the forum

3. force redirection

4. follow that direction

5. within the redirected embedded private forum: search for something that exists

6. observe the search results.

Observation

Links to found items include the ;cid= string.

Whether the issue is reproducible without forced redirection, I don't know. Haven't tested.

Screen shots



Focus on the status bar of the Safari window; as I mouse over the search results, the ;cid= part of the URL is apparent:



Background

I read <http://n2.nabble.com/reference-from-embedded-search-result-fails-to-lead-to-the-required-post-tp950354p950354.html> and thought, Nabble in Plone … forced redirection.
