Solved Posted external links not showing

Post by scotthldr Tue Sep 11, 2012 4:19 pm

Hi all,

Recently set up a forum on here and everything is going well, except for one problem. When my members post up SELECTED external links they come up "Administrators only can see this link" which I can(so the links work) I've checked through the settings to see if anything obvious is wrong and I've deselected and reselected those settings that may have an impact but nothing changes. However Photobucket links work fine.

Can anyone offer any help on the matter?

Regards

Scott

I'll give you everything you could possibly do to fix this.

First, go to:

1. ACP.
2. Advanced mode.
3. General tab.
4. Categories and Forums.
5. Select any forum (you for sure have to go on each forum in your website apparently).
6. Permissions tab.
7. You may see something in the lines of: Show links in messages. There select your own thing, guests, members or etc etc > SAVE.

Second:

1. Advanced mode.
2. General tab.
3. Security.
4. Unauthorize members with less than a week registration to post external links and emails: No.
5. Save.

That's everything so far. Wink

Thanks DarkGlow , problem fixed. It was one of the forums that hadn't been set up correctly "only Administrators can see external links" option was selected by mistake.

Thank you
