I have noticed that in project notes, all hyperlinks work, in project comments, (link to project) works and so does (link to forums) but thats it. in galleries, no hyperlinks work at all. I think that all hyperlinks ought to work everywhere.

Re: Comments

I believe that links to sites outside scratch.mit.edu are deliberately disabled as a security precaution.  The forum does allow more general linking.

Re: Comments

Re: Comments

kevin is right. We try to minimize the linking to outside websites to avoid attracting spammers. There are some places where links are allowed but we try to keep an eye on it.

Re: Comments

Andres, if torterra is right and links to projects are not working from gallery comments, that should be fixed, as linking to other galleries and projects is an important feature for galleries, particularly ones where people have to ask the owner to put up projects for them.

exacally and link to fourms so if they are part of a gallery company they can link to the fourms and show the show and tell topic.
