Hello,

I'm having difficulty embedding google maps links in posts on a forumotion forum, http://zenthusiast.foromotion.net.

I'm using the proper tags but the full link is displayed with the tags in the post not just the clickable text, and it does not work as a clickable link. Below is the post I'm trying to create...

Hmmm...

11 hits and no input.

Could the length of the link be the issue?
It is 1207 characters long.

Indeed, the link does work, but it seems to be too long for the BBc Tag Confused

Thanks, I was starting to think no one understood my issue. I've used similar "google maps" links before with out issue on forumotion forums, but they were shorter. I've also used that same link on other forums running different BB software without issue. Is there something in the source code that limits the acceptable length of the embedded link?

And good luck learning female, I've been working at it for 40+ years and have yet to master it Wink



I'm beginning to wonder if this issue should be in this...

forum instead?
