How to embed www links?
June 22, 2011, 01:27:25 pm
Seen that lots of people can embed links into their posts, so you only need to click on the word and it takes you straight there.

I can't work out how to do it - I can only add the clickable link that ends up being the URL written in full.

Anyone care to wise me up?

The easiest way to work out how someone has done something is to "Quote" them and look at the code itself.

I use a Firefox plugin called bbcodeextra which gives an option to 'make selection url'. I do know how to code it longhand but I wouldn't bother

Feel free to add an entry, or simply link to the SMF : User Guide.

I wouldn't spend any time working on the wiki unless the overlords decide that they want to keep it first.
