I've read the rules and can't see anything about this.

A lot of media outlets now hide articles behind a paywall.

However, it is possible to view the whole article by using a third party website (not sure if I can mention them)

What are the management's view on using links with these website?

I guess it would be frowned on?

Also is there a search facility for the forums?

People post links to paywalled websites that have been archived regularly on here and it's not an issue.

I use my Android phone to view many subscription only local press news pages by using the share button and selecting the Ad-Block Plus Browser with the default setting of JavaScript disabled. It also has the advantage of removing the adverts from many other websites and makes the pages much more readable.
