Forums Are Now Live at http://discuss.elastic.co

Sadly, we cannot twibble bit to allow certain types of links but not others.

However, we can adjust the forum settings to allow users to include links
in their posts from the start of using the forum. I've done so. Let us know
if you have any further issues.

And, to reiterate what Tyler said earlier, it would be super awesome to put
this feedback in the Meta Elastic category.[0]

Why you may ask?

  1. Employees from Discourse are keeping an eye on our forum to help us help
    you have a good experience. They're not reading this list, though.

  2. Trying for the single source of truth mentioned in my original post.

Thank you to everyone for the great feedback so far!

Cheers,

I think github and pastebins/gists shouldn't be considered against the
limit. We ask people to use gist all the time and github issue or code
links are a good thing to use as well.

Thanks Shaunak,

I appreciate that. I think it would be more than welcome to let others of
the community also take the advantage of including Github issues into the
forum software which contain numerous links:

Link level in a post

Hey Jörg,

I've removed this restriction from your account. You should be able to
post more than 2 links in a post now :slight_smile:

It does not work. I can not post messages with links.

After I try to post a new topic such as

----- snip----
To all of you who want to sneak at the features planned for ES 2.0,
this issue collects some of it

Roadmap for 2.0 · Issue #9970 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub

Best,

Jörg

I receive a denial

"Sorry, new users can only put 2 links in a post."

Beside the fact I included just one link, why this restriction? A bit
sad that I am considered a new user after five years happily using ES but
the machine is always right in the end :wink:

I suspect its read only while they sort out resourcing issues. Cache
hit rate is likely quite high while readonly.

The site is read-only. No signups possible. Hmm...

Our friends at Discourse have reported that the site outage has been
resolved. They'll keep up with updates via their Twitter account:

https://twitter.com/discourse/status/595268564493279232

In the meantime, please go forth and use the forums. If they fall over
again we will work to ensure speedy resolution.

Thanks for your patience, folks.

Cheers,
LH
