STOP AUTOLINKING in my posts

Brand names Felo, PB Swiss and even a date in my post are autolinking to sites, and then a bit later when revisiting the post the autolinks disappear. This is a high crime in forum-world. What's going on?

If what you're describing in what I think you are, it happens right after the post is made and will disappear when the page is refreshed.

I have noticed that as well. I have found a quick edit of the post can fix and I know the auto link is annoying as it links to something you are not posting about in most cases.
We may have to update Ryan (Admin) on this issue as some times the links are not good.

Thanks for confirming this. How does one contact Ryan?

Hmm... I guess my ad blocker doesn't let me see that stuff.

I believe those auto links for advertisements are only for users who are not logged in, and the preview is just wrong. I don't think for non-logged-in users you can avoid having them. Ryan uses them to monetize the site.

I think the reference is to when you type a reply and a link appears in your post you did not intend to make.

Ryan sez, "Figured it out. It's viglink bug. I'll fix it this week. Thanks and sorry!"

Hooray!

They stole my identity. Sent it back a week later with condolences and coupon for a "Happy Meal"

Ryan is Admin and the only one that can help you. None of the Mods have any way to fix this issue.

Well that is good news.
