Trouble pasting links
If you have trouble posting a clickable link and posting & such as in shop names such as M & S, see below:
1. You may have noticed, or experienced yourself, that when pasting weblinks on Scooploop, that they are sometimes not clickable, i.e. blue. The reason for this is, that if you type a shortened web address, such as bbc.co.uk, an important part is missing, viz.www. If you type bbc.co.uk in to the address bar of a browser, the browser will add h t t p s://w w w*, this may not be visible in some browsers, such as Chrome, but if you copy the address in Chrome it will be there!
When you paste a full address on Scooploop, confusingly it is shown without the h t t p s://w w w*. So, here is bbc.co.uk typed or copied from somewhere, and here is https://www.bbc.co.uk/ as copied from a browser. This does not apply to all web addresses, but, if yours doesn't work, you'll know why.
*I have added spaces, because even if you type or paste a full address, Scooploop's program removes it.
2. Another Scooploop funny is using & in a post. If you type &, followed by any number of other characters, & and the characters will not appear. So, if you Type M & S without the spaces, you will just end up with M
