Matt 160 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Links are easy. You need to put a code before and after the link, which is wrapped in the square brackets ( >[these chaps] < ) So for a normal weblink, you use the code url at the begining and /url at the end. The following is an example, using normal brackets instead of the square jobbies.... (url)www.uktrapper.com(/url) Providing the square type brackets are used, the link will end up like this: www.uktrapper.com It really is that easy........ The other way is to create a hyperlink. The only difference is that instead of displaying the actual link, you see text of your choice. Here is an example, again, using normal brackets to illustrate: (url=www.uktrapper.com)Click here to visit my website(/url) Which ends up looking like this: Click here to visit my website Simple as that...... Or have I just confused things? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stubby 175 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 an easier, less confussing way, go to the page you want to link to, top of the screen, is the web address, right click and copy, then simply paste that into your reply post on here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, Sorry Kay, I used my own website address because it was the only address I could think of at the time........ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
