creating a link?????

[scar0210]

I can't remember how I created a link in my signature. I want to list my open swaps by the name of the swap so people can click the name of the swap and it will take them to that thread. All I remember doing is clicking that globe but I can;t seem to get it to work. I would greatly appreciate directions.
Thank you!!!

The problem is, when you inserted the address, you inserted it after the http://, so you have 2 http:// instead of one.

The way you do it is to highlight the words you want to be "clickable" and then click the button that looks like the earth with a chainlink on it. Then a little window will open up that allows you to put the specified address in it. This window starts automatically with http:// so make sure you take that out first.

Hope this helps!

Where is this little button? When I go to the edit signature page, I don't have this little button.

Ok, then you need to go into Edit Options and then at the very bottom in the miscellaneous options, Message Editor Interface, choose the Enhanced Interface - WYSIWYG fromt he pull down menu. Then you should have that button when you edit your signature.

By the way, the code adding a link is [ url = (put Address HERE) ] Words you want linked[ / url ] You need to leave out the spaces and parentheses for this.

Thank you so much Jeanne Marie! I never knew how to do this. It works great!
