A member of mine just emailed me and said:

"There is an error message saying there is a link in my post.  There is no link in my post, so I don't know why it comes up."

She is the only person that has complained of this so far (out of about 100 members)... any idea why this would happen?

Thanks,

Anton

Also, I asked the member if there was ANY html code in her post and got this reply:

"Nope, I tried to put an intro in yesterday.  I looked this morning and
it wasn't there.  I posted again this morning, and then read through
the forum.  Before I logged off, I noticed on the bottom of the forum,
my post was there and I got that error message."

What was this 'error' message please? I am unaware of any error messages that would appear after a post is published...

"Unable to save

You are not allowed to put links in post content"

 

She just emailed me again and said her link was able to post when she took out the smiley face she was trying to add... how can enable it so that users with standard access can post them?

Was this a smiley we supplied or one you have added? Or was she trying to link to a remote smiley image file? If a remote file then that IS a link and if you have links turned off that is a proper response. And it is NOT an error message - it is simply because you have disallowed your users to embed links in their posts.

A similar problem
Links in the messages are disabled
But when you try to save a message with a built-in SF smiley - an error that references are prohibited

Indeed. Apologies for this. It is fixed in the next release due at the same time as WP 3.6 now in beta 2.
