MG, note how the system truncated the middle part of the URL in your post #9 and replaced it with an ellipsis (…). The board software does that automatically to keep long URLs from causing the screen to be too wide to display without horizontal sliders. So if you paste a URL into the text space and then select and copy what you pasted to put in the link makers URL line, you always get a broken link like that. You need to leave the original, intact URL copy in your clipboard and paste that into the link maker. The truncated display then doesn't matter as the URL behind remains complete.
