Linking on the Forums

General Discussion
1

Hey all,

I mostly lurk but just wanted to make a quick comment. A few people on the forums have their own sites and post image links there and link them here. Due to my set-up at work, most personal websites are blocked so all I see on the forums is:

blocked_link
blocked_link.PNG978×344 8.34 KB

I was just wondering if we could keep things central to forums when possible for accessibility? It was great when the compiled 3rd party tools moved to the official site instead of rdb’s because I could actually get them without a lot of proxy nonsense.

Thanks for bringing this up; I’d not given thought to this. I’ve enabled a setting in Discourse that makes it download and host the images, so this should not be an issue going forward.

This will not be a problem until the place starts running out.
