Helpful website link tip for new Bhuz

[deelybopper]

Hehe - posted too early last time.

OK - not sure if this is the right place to post this - but if you have your website address in your signature/profile, and what it to be an active link so that people can click through to your website, then here's how...

In the box type:

<a href="http://your.website.address">your.website.address</a>

That should do the trick - worked for me anyway! Sorry of this is a repetition, but couldn't find the info anywhere else.

I haven't tried this myself, maybe someone else is willing to experiment...
You could make the link to your site open in a new window (i.e.not take people away from their precious Bhuz), by adding the target information in the html.

<a href="http://your.website.address" target="_blank">your.website.address</a>

Bea - it does indeed work!

So it does! Excellent!
I'd better go & update my sig then!

Thank you, I think that worked for me. But I mistyped & left out a space, and now I don't seem to be able to edit my sig! Only the very first part of it shows up in the editing box, the rest sort of dangles out of the box and isn't editable.

Oh, well, I can live without the space. (I imagine it's gonna bug me in time, but by then the bhug should be worked out!)

[deelybopper]

Yes, that's a bit frustrating. If you go back into the box, you can probably delete what's in there and retype.

I did the same thing but I really flubbed it up and I can't delete it or anything!! It recognizes it now as html and it won't delete!


Someone help!!

[beafarhana]

I just changed mine back to "normal" non-html. I just deleted the first few letters that showed in on my sig box, and clicked on Save profile settings. So it was saved as nothing. Then I went back & typed in what I wanted and saved that.

If that's not working for you, you will need to ask people who actually know what they're talking about!

Yay that worked!! Thanks Bea!

[Uulady]

Thanks so much! You are brilliant!
