    Hi,

    I just got this warning when visiting a thread. I'm not sure what it's referring to, or what the issue is, but I just thought you should know.

    Cheers

    More than likely it's an image on another site that someone is hotlinking to in a post or their sig. Do you have a link to the page that caused it. It would need to be the exact page that caused it and not just a link to the thread.

    From the thread in the url bar http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=74337476 - A use for old engine oil ???

    And the source code of that thread, it looks like it is the image in "Gyppo"'s signature, that is being hotlinked, that is causing the notification

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
