URLs in Detailed Forum Guide do not work as links [message #616480]

In the Detailed forum guide, I see the section "How to get a quick answer to your question?", the bulleted points have URLs which are not working as links, rather shown as text. I have underlined them in red :

/forum/fa/11969/0/

Link to Google search is working though.

Regards,
Lalit

Thanks.

Few more observations :

In the same page, in the section "How to format your post?",
1. The image is not diaplayed.
2. SQL Formateer link and the link saying "here" gives 404 Page Not Found error.

Thank you, Lalit!

I fixed the first two problems, but I was unable to locate Scott Mackey's message (he posted only 46 messages, and none of them seems to be "the one" (at least, not by its name). Therefore, I removed that sentence from The Guide. This is the original (for future reference):Quote:

Scott Mackey has created a nice little document explaining in detail and with screencaps how to format. The document can be downloaded/viewed here.

Thanks LF.

The screenshot attached in the above message would also be handy for future reference(if required).

There are duplicate lines in the same section, wasn't before when I saw :

/forum/fa/11972/0/

First line can be removed.

In addition to above, there are few more observations :

In the first forum guide, in point 14, the Marketplace link is redirecting to incorrect page :

/forum/fa/11974/0/

I can't insert more than one images in one post, so the screenshot would be in my next reply.

As said above, the link redirects to following page with a message :

/forum/fa/11975/0/

It should redirect to the main forum page of Marketplace.

Both objections fixed:

- two "This is how ..." lines (the second one is part of the image)
- Marketplace link

Thanks again. Yes, one of the duplicate lines, in fact the second line was a part of the image.
