Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

Send the wikis problem. Better yet, just send them this entire thread. :)

The wiki might be fixed with the plugin... But the wiki was custom built... So it may need tweaking by @BAHayman

Looks like there are two separate issues.

1. Regular links aren't clickable unless quoted (although it looks like when it's done the way TimT did it it does work)

2. Links on tapatalk don't direct to the exact post.

+1. I've never seen a problem with embedded.  The problem is also almost always with tapatalk links.

Yup, although it's the identical link as to desktop. Never got it.

the person making the link needs to click on the title right above the post, then copy that url. Does it then work on tapatalk?

Tapatalk is even simpler. You just highlight post and hit copy post url.

It works the way TimT did it because it's in URL tags

But when they can get them to work as links (by quoting or something) they seem to link to the right place. Tapatalk seems to only link to the page for desktop users.
