Oldtimer Posted August 26, 2011 Posted August 26, 2011 I've noticed that when you whizzy guys post links to things, you say get it "here" - here being the link. This looks really snazzy, much better than the www.... link that I have to put up with. Would one of you kind gents explain how you do this please...... Quote

Easy enough when you know how: Click on the link icon: Fill in the web adress bit at the top, and the text you want to appear as a link: Voila!: Text you want Quote
PropNut Posted August 26, 2011 Posted August 26, 2011 Here Use any word that you have typed, highlight it (select it using the mouse) and then click on the icon to the right of the smiley in the menu above. You can paste in a link from any website and it will display the word that you have highlighted. Hope this helps. Edit: Rog got there first! lol Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted August 26, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 26, 2011 Here's a different way ... Press the 'Insert Link' icon above the edit window. Paste your link into the box titeld URL, that states 'http://" Type your text in the box name 'Link Text' below it. Like this: Press Insert Link, and there ya go! (Note that these icons do not appear in the quick reply window, you need to use the 'Full Editor') Quote

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted August 26, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 26, 2011 It is really my only complaint about this system, that it does not have a built-in help system. You can try the docs over At the IPB Document Repository What I really need to do is spend a bit of time putting together a tutorial! Quote
