Edit link name ???

This is something I've seen other do but just can't seem to work out how:o

When adding a link to a comp for example, I see people have changed the link so the long "url" doesn't show but the have changed the name to "Here" or "RT" for example and it is still a clickable link - how is it done?

One-Eye

1) Type HERE or LINK in your post

2) Copy the URL from wherever you found it

3) Highlight the HERE in your text

4) Click on the "Insert Link" icon (the little world with a chain)

5) Paste (make sure you don't get http:// twice)

If you are doing the main link for a comp please use the company name rather than "Clicky" so that it can be seen when you hover over the post in forum view.

That's brilliant! Thank you

Or you can use the bbcode the forum uses.

[ url=ENTER LINK HERE]your text goes here[/ url] (just remove the spaces inside the square brackets
