    It looks like links in XenForo are now generating inline preview of the link target.
    I find those too intrusive. Is it possible to disable them?

    In a current thread, I have posted two external web links. On the preview, each web link displayed as one line. But after submitting the post, when I look at the thread, each link occupies a lot of vertical space. Have a look at these posts:

    Is this an intentional change? If it is, the "advantage" of each web link occupying more vertical space is not obvious. :confused:

    testing a plugin that allows a preview of the target link. The 'advantage' is that you know on what you click if it's an external link.

    I don't like it. I think it should be disabled by default. It breaks the layout of existing content.

    yes that is indeed what I did in that ticket. It may already be working without updating those plugins because most of it was not relevant to the plugin itself (test, some leftover unused parts etc).

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
