Problem with links in posts

Is it just me or is everyone having a problem clicking on a link in a post. I have an iPhone X and when I click on the red lettering which is the link nothing happens. This has been going on a few weeks.
Most recently it was to check the reviews for bat out of hell in the professional reviews post.
In the past it would bring me directly to the site in the link.
What am I doing wrong ??

Same thing here. If I use the App nothing happens with the link. If I go in by typing in the website the links work.

Same here. It’s been like this for months.

I just click and save the url link and then go over to the Safari browser and paste (and go) that way.

Same with me. I have an iPhone 6S and nothing ever happens when I click on the red-lettered links on this forum - that's been happening for a very long time, not just a few weeks.

On other message forums, I have no problem clicking on a link and being brought to the webpage.

I have the same issue on my iPhone X. I have to press down on any links and utilize 3D Touch to open link in a browser window. This is with links to other sources or even within Broadwayworld, such as the broadway Grosses. It’s been like this for months.

However, whenever I get an alert update for a new news story in the app and I click close when it pops up, it brings me to the article in the app taking me away from what I’m actually reading here....

Also, I’m not allowed to read “more news” or watch any show previews/ stage tube videos. It brings me to an error page unless I open BWW in the browser.

Lots of Errors with the app in iPhone for me for quite some time...

Yes, Moderators can we fix this?

Is this also the case when you do a preview of your post and then post the link then? I’ve always done it that way and I’ve never had a problem.

Yes, in the app, it is still a problem. This is even true for the weekly link to the previous week’s box office chart.

With My iPhone XS Max, I have to either copy and paste the address into my browser, hard press the link while still scrolling up and then clicking Open Link, or hard press even longer so the link opens in my browser.

I’ve never used the app. I’ve always just used a direct internet link to the website forum that I have on my iPhone home screen. And I’ve never had a problem with the links unless someone tries to add one in the initial post before reviewing it.

And also as mentioned when using my iMac pretty much any video that BroadwayWorld posts I can never get to play. Sometimes I will get the show commercial but then no video. This has been forever.
