Enable linking to other forum topics

[patrickm]

Currently URLs are disabled in the forum posts. I understand that you might not want people to link to outside sites but linking to other forum posts would be very helpful. Is there a way how you can enable one and not the other? Is it possible to reference forum posts by id?

Thanks for looking into it!

Hi Patrick, I will ask the webmaster if this is possible.

You are right, links are restricted to prevent inappropriate links being posted. You can always post the URL and people can copy/paste them or even select and Open - most browsers support selecting a non-hyperlinked URL and a right click "Open Link" option.

Let's see if the powers that be think tis should be changed.
