When (Is) Linking going to be Fixed??

It is really annoying to have to put the url tags on the links, so I was wondering when, if ever, this will be normal again?

I don't know if it will be fixed. I guess for now you just have to get used to it.  hmm

I'm not so sure it'll ever be fixed... But don't take my word.

I don't mind - I always used the tags anyway.  big_smile

But yeah, it is annoying...  sad

Why not? I mean, it's not like it's impossible to change back, is it?


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Well, yes, it's possible. The thing is, New Members aren't supposed to be able to post links. We can't turn this setting on for just one user group, so then New Members could post links again if it was turned back on... Quite a predicament!

It really does not bother me, you just gotta get in the habit of typing url and /url tags onto URLs  tongue

I normally use the url BBCode for 'formatting' links so they have special text. Like this - your links can have any text you want!  big_smile

So it doesn't really bother me.  tongue

What you mean people normally didn't type with URL tags before they disabled it? That's Lazy.

The links would work even without the tags... that's why they didn't use them.
