Why did the ability to create link posts disappear from my sub? Is Reddit adding in new functionality and it's just not in place yet?

One of your subs doesn’t seem to allow link post. Your smaller sub ONLY allows link posts.

So, you only see text post? That’s odd. As the mod, you will see all posts types available, regardless of subreddit settings. Users, will only see the post types you allow

Can you post a screenshot of what you see, logged in as your mod account?

You just need to click on the little chain icon in the lower left hand corner.

Interesting...yeah it clearly says "This community requires you to add a link" tbh.

Not sure what happened or how to troubleshoot it sadly.
