Creating more informative links in your posts

Post by curious_sb »

As a general rule, you can just type a url in and when you submit your post the forum software will see this as a link and generate it for you.

Like so:

http://www.google.com ; the worlds best search engine.

However sometimes you want people to just click this link, or even better ask them to try out the worlds best search engine for free?

How is it done you ask?

Well, as before, I have provided the code, but the letters are spaced apart to stop the forum software doing the naughty on me..

For the first example above:

[ u r l = h t t p : / / w w w . g o o g l e . c o m] click this link [ / u r l]

For the second example above:
why not [ u r l = h t t p : / / w w w . g o o g l e . c o m] try out the worlds best search engine [ / u r l] for free

Hope this helps!
