vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Copy-Paste Differences from 3.5 to 3.6 for Live Links

Max Johnson · #1 02-10-2007, 03:30 PM

I haven't updated to 3.6 yet because I'm wary about losing a feature that I currently use pretty frequently. If I were to go to another message board or blog or even an article and I just highlight a section of text with links and thumbnails embedded I can hit copy and then paste it right into a post on my board and all the links are automatically live (sometimes the pics from blogs have problems but that's minor). When I try to do this on other vbull forums, it doesn't work.

Does anybody know what this feature is called? Is it based on a setting in the CP?

Is it just because I'm the admin on this board that I get this ability?

If I update to 3.6 will I likely lose the feature?

Thanks in advance for all help.
