      IIRC there was a stricter limit for new users. Once you had racked up a number of posts (perhaps 20?) then you could post every 30 seconds without limit.

      That would certainly make sense. Another (more annoying) approach would be to require a CAPTCHA or some such for the first few posts, although these days I think computers might already be better at 'em than humans.

        You can use images manually

        How exactly?

        And you used a "hidden" link in another thread - again, how?

          Hi Josh, Markdown syntax for images:

          ![Caption text](/path/to/img.jpg)
          

          or

          ![Caption text](/path/to/img.jpg "Image title")
          

          and to make links:

          [The link text](http://example.net/)
          

          or

          [The link text](http://example.net/ "Link title")

            I am not even going to bother trying to learn that syntax. @username I can manage, or bold or italics but I am going to paste links as text:

            http://example.net/

            On the CommunityPlus forum https://community.serif.com/forum

            There are buttons for Bold and Italics, and for inserting Images from a URL or from disk.

            There are also buttons for code, hyperlinks, quotes, horizontal rules, bullet lists and numbered lists. Plus two more for undo/redo.

            These basics are essential. Most users are not geeks for whom writing in code is second nature. I am familiar with many forms of code, but it's a real problem remembering which to use on which forum.

                        O'k, I see you JUST NEED a caption, so it's obligatory to have a pair of brackets between "!" and the parentheses

                          Yep Pesala, I see your point, but unfortunately, as far as I know, this is what the users of this forum have for the time being.
                          Nevertheless, it's possible, that the Developers, will implement more user-friendly interface in the future, but here and now, it's new forum engine, fresh start, and it certainly needs some fixes, like for example "editing comment" bug, and many additional developments, and improvements.

                          These basics are essential.
                          I agree with you Pesala, perhaps in the near, or distant future, all of these functions, or at least part of them, will be implemented in the forum, it would be really nice.

                                I'm "chatting" with Michael on his blog. The Fb folks haven't been spotted online yet.

                                  What if it's opera.com guys' conspiracy to bring us back here?

                                    Confirmed. Since yesterday. I'm waiting for news.

                                    Well, technically it's the primary DNS server that's down. I'm not sure if this is really the proper place, but a mod can always delete this post if not. This is a cross-post:


                                    Okay, here's the story of what happened:

                                    The primary DNS server is apparently down:

                                    $ host -a thedndsanctuary.eu ns01.weservit.nl
                                    Trying "thedndsanctuary.eu"
                                    ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
                                    

                                    The secondary DNS server is fine:

                                    $ host -a thedndsanctuary.eu ns02.weservit.eu
                                    Trying "thedndsanctuary.eu"
                                    Using domain server:
                                    Name: ns02.weservit.eu
                                    [snip]
                                    

                                    But! Unfortunately there a typo snuck into the DNS record back when we set it up:

                                    $ host -t ns thedndsanctuary.eu
                                    thedndsanctuary.eu name server ns01.weservit.eu.
                                    thedndsanctuary.eu name server ns01.weservit.nl.
                                    

                                    It's fixed now:

                                    $ host -t ns thedndsanctuary.eu
                                    thedndsanctuary.eu name server ns01.weservit.nl.
                                    thedndsanctuary.eu name server ns02.weservit.eu.
                                    

                                    I apologize for any inconvenience.
