Customising URL's

Post by Bretts »

After a bit of a search I found this template for customising URL's

[URL**=http://URL of where you want people to go**] Your Chosen Words [**/URL]

Insert URL address as where you want people to go. Also type what you want the link to state in place of "your chosen words.
Also remove any ***

hate to be a downer, there is actually the URL button just above the text box when you create a thread or post a reply. just hover over it and is shows you the code you can use.

I have just posted a link to this thread first using the URL button and then just pasting without the button. They give different results but niether seemed to let me customise the link like this.

Sorry. I dont think you understood. If you hover you mouse over the top it shows you two ways to use it. When you click it you get the same thing. But hovering over it shows you what to change to get the right result. All it really needs from memory is an equals sign. (i'm on a phone,) just do what ever your happy with. Just thought i would point it out. Cheers. Jarrod

I was wondering if that was what you where getting at. My short term memory would have me going back and forth for each character :oops:
Thanks for the pionter I think I will stick with the copy and paste though. :)
