Re: Multiple Links in a post

[Brian Reischl]

That's how we designed it - each message or comment can only have one link in it. 

That's something we've thought about changing, it just hasn't been a high enough priority. For the moment, if you have multiple links you can post them in comments to the message and they'll be hyperlinked there.

What's up with that?  Anyone else have the same problem, or is my experience a fluke?

Can you help me understand the logic in limiting it to just one? It sounds like it was a conscious decision. It does not make any sense to me...

Originally links were a form of attachment, and you could have multiple attachments. That turned out to be complex, so we went to a single attachment. Then we decided that the link really shouldn't be an attachment anyway, so now we have just one link. 

So it's the result of an evolutionary process. We didn't just sit down and say "One link ought to be enough for anyone!"

[Joe Workman]

Thanks. Add me to the +1 list of multiple links too.

Appreciate the explanation but still seems like a design flaw to me.

Please add another request for "multiple links per post" please.

Having said that, really dig the product; props.

Thank you, Michael.

Thanks for the explanation. I'm really enjoying the product, but I also thought this was a strange limitation. Put me down as a +1 for this issue as well.

Thanks!

Hi,

Actually I have the same requests as everyone in this group: would be super cool to have all the links highlighted. The way we use the board is we often share list of links with each other and copy/pasting every link manually is a bit frustrating.

Otherwise, we really enjoy our little board. So, thank you!

But please fix the links :)

I also wish that more than one link was highlighted as do everyone in my board. Our posts also include lots of links and its hard to read hard to use without that. In fact that almost made us leave glassboards. Pretty please make all links blue hyperlinks!

[fjon...@gmail.com]

Another +1 from me. New users in my groups are perplexed when they encounter this and ask me what they did wrong.

From a users standpoint his is a bug regardless of the reasons and it has already been fixed in the iOS app.

[William Siemons]

Count me in as well. I was really surprised when I posted a few links that only the first is clickable. It is rare links are not clickable in any app and I hope this gets fixed soon.
