New site format seems to have lost some links

Have I missed a display option somewhere? I can't seem to see about half the links people refer to in their post. All i see is some blank white space where the link should be, nothing is hidden like white text on white background. Is that a side effect of the new site format? Any chance that info can be displayed soon? I guess it's nothing too serious, but now I'm missing out on some nice lots and CJ's. Anyone else have this problem?

It might be the case of the forum transfer not being able to preserve old-style links. Apart from the new text editor recently introduced, the forum did not allow 'A HREF' tags, so the link was rendered as plain text.

    One example of what i think is a post with the link missing is that well sought after link to BRF's tunneling mod in the "my experiments on tunneling" thread on page three, 18th reply by BRF himself. Another is the "show us your European themes cities", first page also the 18th reply by Simbourgeois, where he says "Oh, that one is one of the greatest bat buildings ever posted on STEX. It's an university made by agart back in 2004. You can find it here " which i thought was referring to a link but perhaps he just meant "here" on the site somewhere. Maybe I'm just confused. thanks thou!

    Sounds to me like the the link coding vanished with the forum upgrade. It can't be fixxed now, but you can try to contact the poster of the message and get the link from him, if he remembers what it is, and if he still comes here.
