VIRUS IN LINK IN FORUM POST - How do I report malware on one of the forum posts?

There is a link on a forum post at Obsidian Digital Garden Tutorial - Learn how to make your own garden for free with GitHub and Netlify! that is titled, “Obsidian Digital Garden Plugin Tutorial Series - Dude, That’s Erin!” DON’T CLICK ON THE LINK! I clicked on it and it resulted in a virus that caused by Firefox browser to constantly created new tabs containing a virus warning. If you close the tab, it just keeps popping up.

** How do I report this to the appropriate people who run the Obsidian forum?

Thanks for the flag! I’ve hidden the post for now and contacted the author. They’ve been in the community for a while so it’s unlikely this is deliberate, but maybe something happened to their website.

They no longer own that domain name. We’ve removed all of those links from the forum. Thanks again!

Also updated title of this thread to make clear the virus isn’t here.
