Why I cannot post links?

[salome]

Hi
This is a forum-related question, maybe a quite noob question

I am an old Manjaro usera and an old Manjaro’s forum user.
I did a new account, because when the old forum closed, my account was not present in the new forum.

I wanna post links related to my topic, but I receive an error message saying that I can’t post links.

I would like to know why this happens

Thank you

We dont want to encourage spam so … links are allowed at a higher trust level.

Also … you should know … please search before posting

• I have suddenly lost the ability to post links and pics?

• "Sorry, you can't include links in your posts."

• No images and links? What gives?

…etc.
