Oddly, the link is fine.

Seems to be when you just post without the http://

Forum has to interpret and format the link for you if you leave that off, so must be at that point it glitchs.

Post the plan link and it doesn't have to do that, so no glitch?

Seems to be posting them OK now (ie posted without http: but it interprets it for the link)?
