LA Times is excerpt link only. Please make note of it.

Thanks I guess - the whole article was already posted - I just formatted it - it didn’t seem like that long of an excerpt ...

Tell you what - I’ll drop by the FReepathon and once again suggest that since its so damn important to get the excerpting rules right that you put a link on the POSTING ARTICLE page to the current list of rules and excerpt requirements.

People, newbies and old-timers, first select the forum, put in title, author, date, URL, text, their comment and then what? I thought there was an auto-excerpt function ...

I don’t post many original articles as is probably true of a lot of us. A posting rules/excerpt link or Heaven’s to Betsy a pop-up when the article URL is input might be useful.

Off to FReepathon ... you could back me up you know. It won’t be the first time I’ve made this simple fix suggestion - might even save you some unnecessary work. You’re welcome in advance!

Thanks for all you do ... ;-)
