    Hi there. I'm a bit confused about the rulings in relation to where I can add my website (which is selling something but not affiliate) to my posts. I know I can't add it to the body of the post but I think it's ok in the signature; however although I've added it to my profile nothing appears when I reply to or post a thread. Can anyone advise please. I also want to make sure I don't breach any of the rules. Have read them but not clear on this! Also related, I've seen that on some people's posts they have a link after their post; I'm not sure whether it's theirs or DP's advertising. Can anyone please tell me what is allowable regarding links of any description as well as those relating to my site. I also have a blog reviewing a product on my site; is that ok? If both the blog and the website are allowable, is it ok to do them both or do I have to pick one?Many thanks!Happyhound

    Permissions are set by a CRON job and are not instantaneous. Once a member meets the requirements and the CRON job runs the member will have a signature. See FAQ.

    OK, I'll look at FAQ as I didn't understand your reply and have no idea what a CRON job is! Sorry!

    A CRON job is a task that a programmers sets for a computer to run at specified times.

    So exactly how many posts can we make until we can drop a link or signature?
