I don't see any of the ad links in any of the example posts folks have pointed at in this thread.

Now we just need some help writing some more wiki articles for common phrases that would be useful for members to see.

Me like!! I don't know if it defeats the purpose, but can ad links be a different color than normal links? I've seen a lot of sites use this mechanism but the advertising link is typically green and double-underlined. I don't mind this ad system as long as I can distinguish between the two on a phone... On a desktop it's just a matter of hovering.

Yeah there's ads (blue links) and wiki links (dashed underlines).

We know, that is the system adding the dashes (links) in the above post wink 
I was referring to the ads.

Yeah the purpose of this is to get the wiki going again, and to make it easier for members to find relevant information based on the post they are reading smile

The other links are from an advertising program I am running a trial on to see if its a good fit for the forum. Will let it run for a few more weeks to collect more data.

I see what you're up to, if the links are always to the relevant page in the wiki then that's maybe not such a bad idea! smile
Thanks for your continued work keeping this place going, Brad.

I have also added a new feature where wiki articles will be linked inside posts for certain words, for example, enabling support material will automatically link to the relevant wiki article. I think this will make finding info easier for most members. Whenever you create a new wiki article it will be added to the forum as well.

in the above thread post 2 the term "light  bulb" links to some skimlinks site.
Post 7 "350 watt power" links to amazon
post 8 "Lap top" links to ebay.
Shopping added by skim words.

I am not a fan of an add link in seemingly every post.
