I've forgotten how

To add a link by using just one word…I’ve tried and I can’t for the life of me remember…please…someone help! I know it’s simple, I’ve googled it but still not getting it right…I feel old now…and stupid! :blush:

CLICKY

i’ve added the # so it displays the syntax, not a link. Just take out the hash to and it’ll display thusly;

CLICKY

I keep the above on a work doc that I put a shortcut on my desktop to so I can use it on forums

Some forums will put up a box rather than the wraprounds when you click the url tab to insert the link, and it writes the link twice in preview, but if you drag and highlight the word you want to link to 1st, it will only insert the link once, and use the word you want to link to 2nd

Do you mean hyperlinking with bbcode?

All of the above…cheers fellas…now all I gotta do is remember what I was gonna link!

I prefer to see what I’m clicking on before I click it. :wink:

so hover over it and look at the address at the bottom of your browser…
