I just posted my first URL link since the upgrade. I saw it mentioned earlier that clicking on the link no longer brings up the linked page in a new window (unless you hold Ctrl while clicking).
I just found a much more serious problem. I always preview my posts whenever I'm quoting, spoilering or URL'ing. While I was composing the post previous to this one (Political Editorial), I previewed my post and then clicked on the URL to test it, just as I always had. The page came up as it should, but when I tried to page back to the preview window, it needed to be refreshed, and refreshing it lost the post I was composing.

Not good. Only TD can fix it though.Estonut wrote:I just posted my first URL link since the upgrade. I saw it mentioned earlier that clicking on the link no longer brings up the linked page in a new window (unless you hold Ctrl while clicking).

In the meantime, hold SHIFT or CTRL while clicking on the link.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: Bored Administrators/TubaDave
And what happened to being able to "tag" your links?
We used to be able to post 'em as [ url = Tag Here] www. link. whatever [ /url ] (no spaces!)
Since the "upgrade" that hasn't worked for me. Testing it now:

ETA: Nope; doesn't work.

I think you've got it backwards. Let's see if this works.
Hey, check out this article about the AL playoffs.
Is that what you mean by tagging your links?

Aha! I think you're right. Funny; I've been tagging them for months, ever since I learned how. Maybe I was just having a senior moment!TheConfessor wrote:I think you've got it backwards. Let's see if this works.
