Trouble with links in a post

Post by fran604g »

@MordEth (David),

I'm having a problem with both my PC and Android when viewing a thread and clicking on a link that's within a post. Can you provide me with some insight as to my trouble, please?

I receive this message on my PC:

And this on my Android phone:

Thank you,

Fran, it might be an issue with the browser you are using...

If it is Chrome, then the issue is specific to only this forum.

Cheers,

HAH! I discovered what I had changed, and why I couldn't view the in-post links.

I had changed the settings for both "Display topics [and posts] from previous days" to "7 days" so I'd see current content, but didn't realize it would restrict links that were posted beyond the 7 days I specified.

I've changed the setting back to the default of "All topics" and "All posts".

PROBLEM SOLVED!
