Links Problem

Hi!

I was just wondering if the kinks with the links problem was still being worked out? I've just tried to link to an amazon page and it wouldn't let me. I've also tried linking to a non-affiliate page, too, with no success. 

Hi Abby,

there's not much we can do from our side, as Simon has stated before.

I would make sure the links are valid - "http", not "https", or any other weird number and sign combinations at the end - and then empty the cache, restart the browser, and try again later.

Other members reported success with that procedure. 

Thanks!

Yeah, the Chief is right: we'd really love to fix this issue, but we cannot see how ...

It's the other way around!   I've had some success with brute forcing it in the past (basically refreshing until it surrenders and let's me insert the link), but I've just had a stubborn one.

Recalling this thread, I changed the http to https and it accepted it first time! 

Thought I'd give https a try just for the heck of it, and it worked!

Shows you how much I know. *shutting up, sitting in the corner, blushing*

HaXX0r3d!

And don't you go slinking off into a corner, Achim. You gave us the key to fixing it!  

That's why, here in the States, they pronounce my name like "A-key-m".

*groan*

Wait, here's a better one:

A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport .  After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom; 'Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.  Welcome to Flight Number 293, in route from New York to Los Angeles .  The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight.  Now sit back and relax.... OH, MY GOD!'  Silence followed, and after a few minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my lap.  You should see the front of my pants!' 

A passenger in Coach yelled, 'That's nothing.  You should see the back of mine!' 

And that is why I don't fly lol

*dies*  I love it!
