I have seen alot of LONG links posted lately. I hate having to scroll across my screen to finish a post, so I am going to try to make this an easy tutorial.

first click the URL tab you will get a code that looks like this[url]

Then erase the ] so your code now looks like this[url
Add an equals sign [url=
then the web address. [url=http://twilightmomsforums.freeforums.org/index.php

Then add back the bracket you removed
[url=http://twilightmomsforums.freeforums.org/index.php]

Next type in whatever you want to call it-
[url=http://twilightmomsforums.freeforums.org/index.php]
TWILIGHT MOMS

then click the URL code again- it should have a * in the box showing it has been clicked already it will give you a code that looks like this[/url]

your coding will look like this MINUS the spaces before/after twilight moms.
[url=http://twilightmomsforums.freeforums.org/index.php]
TWILIGHT MOMS [/url]


Finished product(once spaces are removed)
Twilight moms

Ok I hope that was easy to follow if in doubt hover your mouse over the url code it shows you how to do it.

Thanks for that, Pixie! Big help!

Thanks Pixie! I've tried to explain it before but I haven't been able to put it into steps that make sense. This is great!

Testing

Thanks AmyO for directing me here, and pixie for the help....look I did it...LOL

I am glad someone was able to use it.

I'm gonna try this.
clickable word link thread

Hey cool!! That is way better! Everyone should learn how to do this

Call me a nerd, but I have bookmarked this thread and I refer to it over and over again! Thanks so much Pixie!!

Here is my test run:

SoCalBD release party

Holy Shnikies!!! It worked! I think I did it the long way though. I was typing in [ u r l ] instead of clicking somewhere to make that appear! But I don't care! I did it!!!!

THANK YOU PIXIE!!!

Sorry another test run

Well that's helpful! I knew there was a way to do it but I couldn't figure it out! I don't know why it says you can have HTML in your signature and posts if when you use HTML, you're supposed to use BBCode. LOL

Thank you

This makes my head hurt!!

why its so simple these easies way is to scroll over the url tag in your post and it will give you the coding.

Ok Big DUH to me - I monitor this board and I never saw this thread I need to practice this

Thanks Pixie!!!

I love this feature.. except i have to do it about twice a month or so.. but hey.. the less clickable thingy's the better for me
