Just a few questians when you cut and paste a link how do you get the bit look here and here when i try i can get the bit http www ect how do you change that to here and here
thats the whole page can you cut to part page

you mean like this?


I did it this way:
- write what you want to see on the screen (like "here" or "this")
- highlight what you just wrote, and click the URL button
- after the first url, add a "=" then paste in your link.

hope that makes sense

Thanks steem, I always wondered how to do that also!

If you click on "Post Reply"...along the top of the new windows is a row of buttons

Place your cursor over the button marked "URL" and in the "Tip" line immediately below, the code is written on how to insert it

Insert URL: ......... or [url=http: etc

1. Click on URL, the Display is [url][/url]

2. backspace the cursor sothat is is between "[URL" and "]"

3. enter"=" then paste in link

4. move cursor one space to right sothatr it is between ']" and "[/url]"

5. type in text message




Example
{url=http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=663]whatever you like to put in here[/url]
Please note - first character is "{", this is done to show the actual layout and text
by changing the 1st character to "[" it comes out as
whatever you like to put in here


Note:
you can always put the cursor back over the "URL" button to check the correct syntax

...or like Steem has said

lol elk, you said it much better!

If somebody does something on the forum, and you don't get how, here's a simple tip:
Hit the "quote" button within their quoted text you will find the syntax as denoted by a [] set and all your questions will be answered
Then cancel your new post creation, unless you want to answer quoting their post
