    Issue - Posted Five Links In Post - Added in Forum Firewall Automatically

    I am unable to offer you the links since I am posting this message using proxy...

    Please remove my IP from the firewall as soon as possible...

    Please restructure the Blocking Method (Posting Five Links) for FG / FE levels atleast....

    Hi, :) Sixthsense :),

    the maximimum number of links in one post is three - has been discussed and confirmed in this forum before. Other issues with the forum are more important than the stated number of links and have not been solved for a long time. Let the TT solve these first.

    Hi Holger,

    Thanks for the reply.

    But few months back I posted 5 links in a thread without any issue. I am unable to offer that post link now since using the Proxy now..

    Again posting 5 links should not Ban the user (IP), instead it should show a message saying that More than 3 links are not allowed.

    Hi,

    my state of knowledge is from http://www.excelforum.com/suggestion...-of-links.html - the workaround from there would be to use a couple of posts to split the number of links up in parts of three. Sadly that won´t solve the problem of being blocked right now.

    Hi Holger,

    Thanks again for sharing that discussion link...

    But in fact on 02-08-2014 I answered a thread with Five Links Thread Name "Shared workbook crashing issue". I have taken the screen shot and I thought to attach it but unfortunately the proxy website is not allowing me to attach files in this website

    Re: Issue - Posted Five Links In Post - Added in Forum Firewall Automatically

    Yes now I got access and thanks for it

    In the below link in Feb-2014 I posted 5 links without any issues...

    http://www.excelforum.com/excel-form...ing-issue.html

    Anyhow, please consider changing the system of automatic addition in firewall to a message box saying Post consist more than 3 links, so unable to post the message , so that others also not needed to face this issue in future

    nice to hear your Ip is back.


    =if(links>Sixth/2,"Not Allowed","Ok continue")

    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "

    Regards,
