A "how to" question
I am trying to figure out how to post a link without having to copy paste the entire length of the link, but to use a one word response. frequently, I see someone responding with a link where they say something like "you can find the different types of XXX here", with the word "here" being a different color and the when clicked, takes you to the link.
How is that done? Thanks |

You have to copy the entire link but...
Type the word you want to be the blue link, highlight it, select the insert link button , paste your link in the popup box, click ok. It will look like this in your post: [URL="http://thefiringline.com/forums/index.php"]The Firing Line[/URL] but will look like this when submitted: The Firing Line Last edited by Brian Pfleuger; March 4, 2013 at 10:18 AM. |

vBulletin, yes, though there may be some code variations between versions, I don't know.
