I've uploaded four videos to the forums so far. Three from my laptop and one from my phone. For some reason, whenever I upload a video it won't let me post it directly. The video will finish uploading, but when I hit post it reloads the page and says "Unable to save. You are not allowed to put links in post content".
Oddly enough, I found out that if I make a post with the text first, then edit that post and upload the video, it works fine. All four videos I posted I've done so like that. The first two I didn't notice the message and thought I had forgotten to attach the files, so I just found this workaround by accident.
  

Hi, sorry about that. Our spam filter prevents new users from certain things. I now moved you to a new group which should fix this. We may have to look into whether the system is to strict at the moment.

I have the same problem - I have a number of videos I uploaded to the old forums I want to share again, but keep getting the error message.

Are you sharing links? Or are they video files?

If you are able to upload pictures, that will help me home in on the issue much better.

It happens with both video files and pictures (just tried to attach one in this post) - the file upload seems to work fine, but the post won't publish. There was no link in the posts where I got that error message. I've since tried out the workaround described by Quattro250 and it works for me as well.
  

Were you getting this error as well? "Unable to save. You are not allowed to put links in post content"
