I'm trying to use the signature in two links but it isn't working. One is saying that the sig needs an extension and the other one ignores the URL. If I use anything with a .png, .jpg or .gif it'll work fine. Can we have a sig with an extension on it?

Hello Datasian and welcome to the forums! It would be helpful if you can specify which forums are you getting the errors with and what code do they use. A link to said forums would go a long way in letting us pinpoint the problem. In the Magelo forums you can use: [wow:sig:51497] and you'll get my signature as below. The correct links should already be available in your Signature section when you select 'Customize' for a particular character.

The guild forum is an invision board. http://www.invisionpower.com/community/board/ The work one is phpbb invision requires an extension at the end of the URL. It can accept png and jpg extensions. When trying to use the [img] extensions with http://wow.sig.magelo.com/50697 , it gives an "invalid extension" error. The default phpbb setup just outputs [img] /img' target='new'>http://wow.sig.magelo.com/50697/img as a link to http://wow.magelo.com/profile/50697. Since it's work, I doubt they'll allow an extensionless link to act as an image. It can take any png and jpg in an [img] tag though.

Thanks for the information, datasian. You can now append a png extension at the end of your signature url: http://wow.sig.magelo.com/50697.png We will update our html and BBcode asap to reflect this. In the meantime, perhaps you can try using this code: [url=http://wow.magelo.com/profile/50697][img]http://wow.sig.magelo.com/50697.png[/img][/url] Let me know if it works.
