insert link

[Baz]

how do you insert a link in a post but change the words to whatever you want instead of the long address itself.

understand

I've often wondered that too Baz........

Hi Baz

You type [ url=<insert full url>]what you want to call it[ /url], removing the spaces after the opening [ bracket.

eg, [ url=www.bbc.co.uk]BBC[ /url] becomes BBC

ahh!!!   so simple.  So can you use the insert hyperlink icon then change it

cheers Rik

[Rik]

Yup. If you use reply, rather than the QR box, the insert hyperlink does it all for you. We're trying to resolve the code for the QR box.
