I'm having problems posting links this morning.  The 'Answer now' button just doesn't do it.  I'm using Chrome and I've had no problems with it until now.  Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone else is suddenly experiencing the same.

OK.  Hopefully the Ed will look at this.  Seems odd that it's happened suddenly.

yesterday and today for me too

It's fine.  It's you lot.  😂. xx

I get an error on that "successful" link LB. ☹

Testing on Chrome from desktop -

The paste option (which I use for links and pasting text) doesn't work unless I first type a space in the Answer Now button.  That might solve it for you Naomi.

That works for me LIK

No spaces needed here & lb's link works fine in Chrome & Firefox.

Haven't been able to post links since the unnecessary new answer box arrived

Blimming marvellous!  They worked - one with a space and one without.   A temporary gremlin in the works?
