  • Help I can't make my link to my journal clickable

    OK so I have had a clickable link to my journal for a long time and all of the sudden since the board upgrades it isn't working. I figured it might be because URL's have changed so today I went in and followed these instructions to redo it:



    Clickable Links
    You can make this:
    http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...splay.php?f=94
    look like this:
    Journal Stats

    Making a link "clickable" is fairly easy once you have done it. I will attempt to lay out the instructions for you.

    1. Copy the url address of the thread you would like to make "clickable". This means to highlight it, right click your mouse and click copy.

    2. Go to your post, signature, etc where you will be placing the clickable link.

    3. Type:
    [*url=
    Leave out the * symbol when you do this. I placed it there to show you how it should look.

    4. Paste the url address you just copied directly after that. No spaces.

    5. Place the ending bracket ] after the url address.

    6. Type in what ever you want to be seen such as the name of your journal. Example: I would type Jimmie Jo's Journal. floydgirl might type Look At My Grandbaby! if she was posting a thread of baby pics.

    7. End the whole line with [*/url], again leave out the * symbol when you do this.

    Your line should look something like this:
    [*url=http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=36]Chat it up in Chit Chat!!![*/url]

    REMEMBER... LEAVE OUT THE * SYMBOL.




    And it just is not working for me ........ have the instructions changed with the new board???

              Is this OK ...
              for html or bb code you need to make sure that everything is closed propperly.

              [hello][there]hi[/there][/hello] so you had a bunch of url and /url font and /font b and /b but they were not nested correctly.

              I think I fixed it.
