Not so sure how to put this. How do you change the words in a link? Suppose i put a link like http://www.hungry-girl.com/girls/bit....php?isid=1482 and i want it to be shorter how do i do that? Like if i just want it so say "this" instead of having the whole big link in there. Hope my question made sense. Thanks!

see below

thought my suggestion worked, it didn't... oh well... sorry

I figured it out! Click the little globe symbol with a link on top of it above your post box and type in your address. Then, remove the part not in brackets when it shows up.

Here's what to do. You code it like this:
{url=www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2277112#post2277112]the short name[url] but replace the first { with the proper [.
Then it will look like this!
Hope this helps.

You're not actually entering the entire URL.

Instead of starting with "www" you need to start with "http://www" instead.

You're almost there!!! Try it!

Also don't forget the end tag, it ends in [/url] not [url]

Duh! Yes, needs the final /url. Sorry!

YAY!!!!!! Thanks ladies
