[Suggestion] Allow going to steam page of AGs you cannot enter

Its that game:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/473690/Absolver/

I hope that helps :o)

I have been in the same situation many times. I just want to quickly get to the Steam store page for the game, but there is no link. It's not a big deal, but it's a little annoying when pretty much every other page on the site has a direct link to the Steam page.

well, yeah.. browsing through a random user page, you can't click on invite-only giveaways but you can click on group giveaways and it redirects you to the message you get on the link above (I can't enter in that one too), but you get the game name so you can just search it and go on the steam page..
the invite-only ones though feature only the name and a non-clickable image, so if the name is quite long you can't get many information about it..
Idk, it would probably be nice as you said to have a direct link to the Steam page and only that, without seeing private information in the giveaway page for the group members and those who can enter! maybe =P

Yeah, I can find the steam page just fine. I'm quite new here. I expected to just be handed a link, like for the other GAs.

So while we're at it, [snip]; Up top.--^

In case you haven't been told this yet, Welcome to SG!

I get your frustration. Having a link to the steam page would be nice, but it isn't in Vanilla SG.
Thankfully, however, there are scripts to solve it such as ESGST (Option 2.18) which is available as both a Tampermokey/greasemonkey script and as an extension for FF & Chrome. I highly recommend this extension. Despite being a bit overwhelming at first with all of the various options (some of which I still find daunting and thus ignore), it greatly improves one's SG experience and is reasonably self-explanatory.
This is an illustration of the links as they appear on that giveaway page with ESGST and SquishedPotatoe's Dark Grey Theme with the ESGST explanation of those buttons above.

I also strongly recommend the script SGLinkies. it provides an answer to many of the other things i found mildly frustrating about Vanilla SG.

So I'm seeing this because I'm not a member of that group which is fine, but the GA has an interesting picture/name.
I would like to know more about the game and would like to have a quick link to steam. Is there any particular reason why the the clickable picture is missing here?

I entered SG in Internet Explorer (ewww) without add-ons (not that I have any, as I don't use it). And there is link to Steam next to the giveaway name. Both on main page, and created / won pages.

You can't access giveaway page per se (just see not part of the group message), as you're not part of the group. So you can't have access to list of entrants, comments etc.

Allow the start date of a GA to be left empty to indicate that it should start immediatelly after creation;

Just click "Now' when you pick giveaway starts time.

[difficult one] Show a preview of the message you're about to post, so you can see whether your formatting has been done correctly;

I think it's in suggestions for years now :P ESGST have this feature from what I know. I just use one of my old GAs to post reply in description, so I can see format errors. Not perfect, but best thing we have with tools available.

edit: misunderstood things

So I'm seeing this because I'm not a member of that group which is fine, but the GA has an interesting picture/name.

Instead of opening the giveaway itself, just click on the little Steam icon just after the game's name and required points to enter

ESGST has a feature that would look up the game on steam.

2. Giveaways
   -- 18.[SG]Giveaway Error Search Links

What does it do?
If you cannot access a giveaway because of many different reasons, a "Search Links" row is added to the table of the error page containing 4 links that allow you to search for the game elsewhere:
A SteamGifts icon that allows you to search for open giveaways of the game on SteamGifts.
 allows you to search for the game on Steam.
 allows you to search for the game on SteamDB.
 allows you to search for the game on Barter.vg.
