Links are colored either green or purple.
A local link
A external link

  • Green indicate the link is internal and points somewhere within ledstrain.org
  • Purple indicate the link is external and points out to the web

Touchscreen users will have a boundary around linked images to indicate this as well

Hi, thanks for the tutorial. I would like to send a PM, but I visualize only "Choose Tags" and "Discussion Title". There is no "Recipients" option. Thanks!

    AGI I haven't updated this in awhile, sorry for the confusion
    The private messaging was removed in August. You can see some of the details here and here. Any feedback is welcome about this 👍
    Currently, we're using Zulip Chat which has private messaging as well.
