Previews? Like when you’re posting? That preview? Or do you mean the brief

The brief message previews should be all plain text with

Hmmm....linking to posts within posts doesn’t seem to
work.

What didn’t work? I see the article you linked to. Did it not show up in when
you previewed prior to posting?

Another issue is the Formats
Help Page which only links to the
FTX QuickStart and not the
FTX Guide. People who don’t know
about the guide won’t be able to access it and all of the useful information

The quick-start page has a link to the user guide at the bottom. But I just
put another link at the top.
