Hello,

I’m making a list of links for a specific topic. It’s in the format:

* * *

**Title**  
link

* * *

However one of the links keeps on showing a preview. I understand if you put a link on its own line it gets a preview. Is there a way to put the link on its own line without a preview showing?

**Disable Link Preview**  
[`https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405`](https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405)

Place your URL between ` symbol (which we normally used to wrap codes) like below

```plaintext
**Disable Link Preview**
[`https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405`](https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405)

```

But it will not render in normal font. Since system treating this as some programming language code.

Yes, put a space before the link.

So instead of

Also … for the record:

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405](https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405)

^^^^ no spaces, no special magic.

```plaintext
[https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405](https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405)

```

New parser is smart enough not to generate a preview for explicit links…

Another option is

```plaintext
<https://meta.discourse.org/t/disable-link-preview/47405>

```
