I've found that sometimes I attach a link to text, and the link doesn't take. One thing I've noticed is that the link somehow gets stripped when I go into the BB Code tab on a reply, and then hit preview. Not sure if this is how the link is getting stripped each time though. And sometimes it doesn't get stripped. Have I lost my mind?

How do you post links - which BBCode do you use? I do [ url = (link) ] text [ / url ] and that seems to work fine.

I just use the little add link button in the reply screen.

Don't change to preview mode before posting. I've found that sometimes changing to preview mode before posting causes formatting to mess up when it actually posts, so I make sure it's always on BBCode before I post. What I often do, if I want to make sure it looks fine before posting, is copy the BBCode text, change to preview to make sure it looks good, then change back to BBCode and paste, and if changing to preview still messed it up, I have the text copied and can just edit it back easily, this time not looking at preview mode at all.
