swordfish Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I just typed multiple sentences and they all just came up as one giant link. I don't mind it, just so I know it's on the website and I didn't end up getting a virus on my pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind it, just so I know it's on the website and I didn't end up getting a virus on my pc.[emoji1787]Lol I thought the same thing when I was trying to post something about reloading. Thankfully, Tapatalk seems to keep it from happening while I’m typing it in on my phone. It’s almost more convenient to try and post something on my iPhone keyboard than it is on desktop lol. Hopefully a fix comes soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guns_and_labs Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I note that we still do not have a solution to this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aalbert Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Have you thought of doing some banners etc. instead of generating revenue from auto-linking... that is the way we took sturmgewehr.com and it was received positively. Either way, thank you for your site and support of the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3Dflyer Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 New member here. I am finding writing posts to be a nightmare. I spend more time correcting the hyperlink errors and sentence rearranging than I do to actually type a message. Am I reading correctly that there is no way to turn off the hyperlink feature?

3Dflyer Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I just changed web browsers on my iphone to firefox. I seem to be able to type sentences without the words getting moved, the curser relocating, and random words changing to hyperlinks. Here is a test sentence that would normally be butchered... I am bullets to shoot from my gun for 3 gun matches. I like to load for rifles and pistols to save ammunition or ammo costs. reloading As you can see only one word was automatically changed instead of ten. Firefox helps but is not a perfect solution.

matir Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 It looks like the input fields have 'norewrite' added to them (perhaps by IP, not sure how it's setup) but would also need 'nolink' to prevent VigLink from trying to insert new links as well as rewriting existing ones.

Sarge Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Don’t forget, this was initiated by Brian to try to boost revenue. I’m sure all of the helpful hints at getting rid of it are pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritinUSA Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Question for Brian; Is the Anti-Spam thing still active on this forum ? The reason I ask is that I am wondering if the Viglink it getting routed to the Anti-Spam process to confirm that the user is allowed to add links, and maybe that delay is causing the issue. Link to the Anti-Spam thing is below, if it is still active it may be causing a conflict so perhaps try turning it off ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
