I can see that you posted 6 hours 37 minutes before I replied.

or is there another function you mean I'm not understanding due to a long friday ?

If you go back to the first post on this thread, it just says it was 5 years and six months ago. It would be nice if it said the day/time that it was posted, instead of approximately how long ago it was posted.

Using safari on my iphone even the length of time since posting isn't showing up. I don't browse the forums on my phone often but it would be nice to see the date or time there as well.

Please either do away with entirely the "You have to many links in your message, please decrease it!" or increase the quota significantly. It sucks when wanting to list a bunch of TDb links.

Was having too many hyperlinks really an issue?

Is this a new thing? I haven't run into it before. But I literally have hundreds of links on my store posts so I'm afraid to update them the next time...

Yes please remove this restriction unless there was some specific problem the change was addressing.

I think it is a new restriction. I ran into it too when editing my build post. Had to remove all the TDB links. Did not experiment to try to find out how many links the new limit is.

I ran into the same issue with links the other week, and had to split a post into to two posts, to get all the links in. I think it might also be including links in a footer toward the max for a post.

Correct, but that info does not show up on my Droid 2, unless I am posting. It would be nice if the info appeared on each post again. Thanks.

I little birdie--I can't say his name, let's just call him Meff Jartin--said the Web Guy© changed the quota to 50 links.

Let's test that:

50 isn't bad but I'd prefer much more. Unless there is a reason a bunch of links are a problem?

Hate to look a gift horse in the mouth - but my store general inventory posts have ~200 links to TDb... Now I fear to edit them.

There is a layout problem with the menu.

In certain widths the menu bar [home][store][forum]...[contact] goes away and is no longer navigable.

This seems to happen shortly under 1000 pixels in width. If the window is made even more narrow eventually it changes the layout to the mobile view where the menu icon is again visible.

Here is a screen short of the badness:
