"Naming" Quotes, Links, etc.

<--- Can be locked, Thanks Fluffy' and Tean'


I'm not sure if this is where this should be. There's not really a general "Generic Forum Tips" thread, and this is something I've been wondering.
I know how to say who quoted the post you're quoting, but I've never figured out how to make links show as "Here" "Click Me" etc. It's not a big deal, but I'd like to know.

Thanks in advance :D

This is the URL button tip.
Insert URL: [url]http://url[/url.] or [url=http://url]URL text[/url.]

I also highlight the URL in another color. Simply highlight from [url ... to /url] and then click on one of the font colors on the right. I usually pick the one on the far left side, second from the bottom.

Ooh, what I was trying to do was the same as the quotes with URL text

So, this should work... hm...
EDIT: K, thanks for the help :D.

Changed the link so nobody can edit your post (you linked to the edit mode, doubt it would have worked, but needed to be safe) -Staff

You got it backwards actually. The web address goes in [url=. And highlight and color from [url .. to /url] after your done making the link (make sure you highlight the whole thing.

*EDIT*

Yep, now you got it.
