How to post links in the forums without Trust Level 3
Blizzard’s forums operate on back-end software called Discourse. What you are / are not allowed to post is determined by your Trust Level. Trust Level is increased by making threads / posts, reading threads / posts, liking posts, number of days visiting the forums. Without Trust Level 3 posters cannot post clickable hyperlinks (to non-Blizzard domains) or embed pictures.
For non-TL3 posters, in order to post hyperlinks follow this procedure…
Copy the URL to the clipboard and then paste it into your forum post…
Highlight the URL…
Click on the Preformatted Text button…
This will convert the plain text URL into preformatted text…
You may now make your post and the URL will appear as preformatted text which, whilst not clickable, can be copied / pasted into a browser window by readers…
Then someone else with TL3 can re-post it as a clickable link / embed the picture, for example…
You will need to upload your screenshots to a free image hosting site first.
There are lots of sites that allow this without needing to sign up for an account first.
For example… https://freeimage.host/

Thread updated with new images and a using a different free image hosting site.
This was done because the original images were hosted on IMGUR which, as of 30th September 2025, is blocking UK-based IP addresses from being able to view their site due to the newly implemented Online Safety Act.
