Help with posting


If you go to "Hottest Actress" here in General Discussion and scroll down to poster mercator post you can see you can click on his links. I put the link but then you would have to copy&paste it to see the picture. My question is how can you make the link so you only have to click on it?

reply

Click on this link that will take you to the thread that explains how it's done

< a href="http://Google.com"; > Text < /a >

I will make you a picture to show you in the most clear way possible. Be back in a few....

OK. And thanks

Ok, here is a link to a picture I made about how to make clickable links. I am posting TWO links that open up to the SAME picture. I'm doing this to show you the 2 different visual ways that you can make the link appear in your posts.

Here is the first link: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/3a/56/6c/3a566c9c3a7410a84ea5b165f5b883e5.jpg


Here is the second link: Movie Chat Link Code Picture

The sample link I used as a representation in the picture is for google.com

You can make the link look like this: https://www.google.com

OR

You can make the link look like this: Google

Just don't get it. The above link is just a picture of an actress. But when I click on it, it takes me here:

You have to paste the link twice. Once in between the quotation marks '''' and then paste it again between the brackets > <

It is a pain in the ass I know. But right now it's what works.

You see your first 2 characters? You have a space between the < and the letter a. Get ride of that space.

reply

Also, you have spaces between your last 4 characters. There should be no spaces at all. The ONLY SPACE should be between the a and the href in the beginning of the code.

Here is a picture of the code again. See how there is only one single space between the a and href? I would type the code out into this post but it won't show up so I have to post a picture instead lol.

Try writing the code down on a piece of paper exactly the way you see it in the picture. 😊

You got it!!!!

Now, if you want the link to be just the actresses name, then instead of pasting the link in between the brackets > <
you would just type her name in between the brackets instead.

> Actresses Name <

(But without the spaces)
