So I'm trying to add a link to a website but have the link be titled so people click on a few words instead of the full link. I've tried HTML codes and a few different options including the sites editor hyperlink, but it just doesnt transfer over. The code will just show up on the page. The site is supported by LeagueUSA but their website doesnt have any how-to guides.

For example, I'd want to provide a link to a store but instead of the link appearing I'd want it to say "Click here to shop". Am I just missing something or does anyone know a shortcut?

Like straight HTML?

CODE
<a href="http://blah.com">The Words</a>


Is that what you've tried, or no? I think that should work.

I'm pretty sure I've tried that. I dont know if its the coding thats the issue or if this is some rare site that doesnt support HTML. rolleyes.gif

"url=*yourlink*"*your words here*"/url"


replace quotes with brackets

ha. You're asking about another site. Silly me. Guess I should have read the whole post.

Is it like an editor that only supports Markdown or something? Tell us more about the editor/site.
Greatone
Figured it out. The web editor had a glitch.

I've tried over and over to upload and to link to my avatar pic and no matter how I resize it won't upload. It's less then 100X100 and is way less than 14.6kb so I don't understand.

I find it much easier to save a picture to my desktop, then upload it from the desktop. I've never had a problem doing that.

Would help if you could post the error that you're getting.

Not sure if this is a dumb question, but why does it say -1 New Messages for me?

Because you deleted a PM that wasn't opened. I cleaned out my mailbox not too long ago and I got rid of a whole bunch of ones I never actually opened. It said -12 messages at one point.
