• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

I’ve noticed that some links are not highlighted in anyway. An example is in the Parkinson miller thread @quitereal posted a link to lathes.uk. All that shows is the title with no indication that it is a link. I posted exactly the same thing with the same result. Facebook links show up as a preview. Is this a forum problem or is it an iPad one?
 
The link is a different colour for me. PC, WIN 11, Firefox
 
Bugger!! The links show in a different color on my iPhone but not on my iPad.
Of course different versions of iOS so I can’t easily compare settings.

They do show up in Firefox on the iPad, but not in safari.

Hey John, can you post a link to that post. Everything on that thread that I was able to find worked fine for me.
