Names no longer linking to their pages in the database?

It hasn’t happened in any of new posts yet. Is there any way to get them to link again? Or does this feature no longer exist?

It used to be that if you typed a name which was in the database, a few minutes later it would change color and become a link to that name’s page.

I had to type in the links individually the first post I did on here. After that, I found that it was too much work and skipped doing it. I typed in:

[name_f]name[/name_f] for girl names
[name_m]name[/name_m] for boy names
[name_u]name[/name_u] for unisex names

I don’t know of any other way to do this at the moment, and takes way too long if you do anything more than a couple of names.

[name_m]Don[/name_m]’t worry, we will be bringing this feature back soon! There are a few more urgent issues still to be straightened out, but the name auto-linking will be reinstated as soon as possible.

[name_m]Ah[/name_m], okay! Sorry if it seemed like I was making a big deal out of this. I was just curious, since I’ve seen other features removed before. Thanks! :slight_smile:
