sheepdog 10 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 Finally escaping Sudan, a woman who had been sentenced to death because she was a Christian has finally managed to get out of the country alive! She has made it to Italy, and any rate. I was really shocked to see her make it out of the country alive. I wouldn't of given a nickel for her chances of survival. Even after her death sentence was overturned and they had to release her, they arrested her again at the airport, with some trumped up charge of faking passport documents. What a terrible ordeal this poor woman has gone threw. You can read more about it here. Ok, well, you could of read more about it, but for some reason paste is not working. Anybody know why I can't paste a link to the story? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fila 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) The way to post a link to another website changed. As far as I figured out one way to post a link is to past the link in the text. The forum changes the characters of the web address into a link. Another way to create a link is to use the chain icon on top of the post window. When the mouse pointer clicks on the chain icon a new window opens. It is possible to past the copied web address of a website in the link window that is called: URL. The link shows in the post in the form of the web address or as a shortened version of the webaddress. If you like to show the full web address to a website too it seems necessary to post the web address in the text. The web address doesn't change to a link when spaces are put between the letters of the first part of the web address. Here is an example. The first link has been created by using the chain icon. https://support.xisto.com/ The second link is created without the chain icon. https://support.xisto.com/ This website address has been posted by putting spaces between the first parts of the web address. support.xisto.com/ It is possible to create a link and to use a random word like 'support' to indicate the part of the post to click on. This is done by high lighting a word and to click on the chain icon while the word that is meant to function as a link is high lighted. Here is an example of a word, that contains a link. support . .

sheepdog 10 Report post Posted August 8, 2014 It isn't just links that I can't post. I tried today to paste a copy of a weird email I got to see if it was something legit or a scam and couldn't post it either. I also tried pasting it in notepad first, that didn't help either.

yordan 10 Report post Posted August 8, 2014 So, I think that the bug is inside your browser. Which browser are you currently using? Did you try the copy-pase thing from another computer which uses another browser?I just tried the copy-paste thing from notepad into my Firefox 31.0, worked fine on my computer.

yordan 10 Report post Posted August 11, 2014 Copy/paste works everywhere but here. Please, be more precise. Does copy-paste work on Xisto forum when you connect from any other computer? Or does copy/paste work from your computer on any other website, and not on Xisto? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheepdog 10 Report post Posted August 13, 2014 I only have one computer. Well, at least only one I use to get in here. And yes, it works every where except here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yordan 10 Report post Posted August 13, 2014 Try with the same version I'm using. Get it here : http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable It's a portable version, so no installation, just unpack it and try it. And if it does not work or if you don't like it, just remove the folder. I use this verson of firefox because it's not installed, it does not modify the windows registry, so it works the same way on most of systems.
