I'm new here and am excited to join your group. Please forgive me as I learn my way around your forum. Still trying to figure out the automatic links that are added to posts. Do I ignore them or is there a way to turn them off?

Welcome from NJ. You basically just have to ignore the automatic links. I don't know of a way to turn them off. I'm guessing it's part of the income generation for the site from the hosting service as it's free to us. I may be mistaken on that. I'm sure someone else will come along with a better explanation. Have fun here. It's a great group full of encouragement and information.

​Welcome from Ontario, Canada. If you are talking about blue highlighted words within text, just ignore them as they are a link to advertisements.

Howdy from Texas. We look forward to seeing some quilts that you are making. Ask a lot of questions & you will get a lot of answers. This is a wonderful, friendly, supportive group of quilters who love to help.
