Ah, but there's no automation. Only people creating Open thread out of their own good will!
I still think Open threads should be weekly... if nobody has created one, you can create one following the customs...
I know that they are not created automatically. But I wondered whether they are used (indexed, listed,...) in some automatic way that depends on the title or one post per week.
IIRC the sidebar used to have a link to the latest open thread, which I think was based on the open_thread tag. That seems to have vanished now.
I'm still seeing it, and it is tag-based, I believe. Changing the name seems to have made the links somewhat weird, though (it looks like both open_thread_march_14_march_20_2016 and open_thread_march_21_march_27 _2016 might work?).
Oh, it shows up on /r/discussion/new, but not on /r/all/recentposts.
Weird. I used to have a page that would redirect you to the latest open thread, finding it through the sidebar API. I took it down a month or so back because the API had vanished, but now it's apparently back.
The important part of the URL of this thread is /nf7/. The stuff after that is intended for human use, you can replace it arbitrarily.
Good to know!
