Message saying I can't post URL's
Hi there,
I am a poor drustrated Linux (and LQ) newbie frustrated by a Wireless Networking problem. In desperation I am trying to post in the Wireless Networking forum only to get a message saying that unless I have posted 5 times I can't post URL's. I don't have a problem with this rule. The problem is that my post doesn't contain any URL's. I did contain an IP address which I x'd out but I still get the same message. Any ideas now .. Ever more frustratedly .... theGerbil |
Hello and welcome to LQ!
Untill you have your 5 posts, you can use for example www [dot] linuxquestions [dot] org Boby! |
another way, esp for ip addresses, is to use the code tags: [ code] and [/ code] withoout the spaces.
|
Thank you guys .. but I don't wanna post a URL. There is no URL in my post. That is the issue. HELP!!!
|
testing: 127.0.0.1
Ip addresses show up as text, not as hyperlinks. Did you put [url ][/ url] around it? or use http:/ / in front of it? |
Are you sure that some output you are pasting doesn't have a URL (many network drivers for instance do this)?
