How do you post links on here? I tried to post one, but it didn't let me.
What you can do is something like this:

In order to keep our forum safe for everyone, only a few of us regulars are permitted to post links.
Ohhhhh, okay. Thank you both. :)
To post links in a text-based format like this, you typically need to follow certain formatting rules depending on the platform you're using. Here are a few common methods:
1. Plain Text: If you're unable to directly post clickable links, you can simply type out the full URL in the text. For example, typing "example.com" will be displayed as "example.com."
2. Markdown: If the platform supports Markdown formatting, you can enclose the link in square brackets followed by the full URL in parentheses. For example, [Example](http://example.com) will be displayed as Example.
3. HTML: Some platforms accept HTML formatting. In this case, you can use the anchor tag to create a link. Enclose the link text in opening and closing anchor tags, like this: <a href="http://example.com">Example</a>.
4. Button or hyperlink feature: If the platform provides specific tools for adding links, look for a button or an option to insert a hyperlink. This functionality may vary depending on the platform or text editor you're using.
Remember to double-check if the platform you're using has any specific guidelines or limitations for posting links.
