I figured we could start a forum-only version of the "Website errors" thread. For example, I noticed the following error in the description of the Workshop & Maintenance forum:

Whether you are wondering how to true a wheel, how to fix that clicking sound or simply maintain you bike for the long haul; the Workshop & Maintenance forum is your one-stop online mechanic shop.

It should read:

Not sure this is really called for. Admin notices and official posts are rare and minimal so maybe a PM should suffice.
Okay, should I send it to Irondan or some other admin?

I can't link to posts anymore.
When I press the "link" button, no link appears.
Anybody having the same problem?
 
I've had the same issue recently. I thought it was my computer so I restarted it and it went away. It must be some sort of a software bug. I'll pass along a message to the website development team.

They haven't been very responsive lately, I don't know if they'll get back to us.

Tried clearing your cache/browsing history?

Just a random thought. Sometimes it's as simple as, though this does not look like it, ye.

I have a request for Immediate Media's software development team to take a look at this issue. I'll post any information I'm given here when I get it. They may very well post something too...

Apparently there was a Javascript file that hadn't been updated. It's updated now, there shouldn't be any issues with the "Link" button. If anyone continues to have a problem using the "Link" function, please let me know so I can pass it along to Immediate Media.

Cheers
