    Do you mean You see the link location URL like this?, https://www.sevenforums.com/members/koolkat77.html instead of this? koolkat77
    If it does not transform from the URL to your name just highlight the URL, and type your name.


    Or you don't understand the procedures?
    There is a hard way, and an easy way to do it.

    The hard way:
    Place your cursor arrow right before koolkat77, make sure it is not the pointing finger that signifies that you are about to click on a link, then wipe to the left or right to highlight It depends on your starting point.

    Once you have it highlighted place your cursor arrow within the highlighted area, and right click.
    Scroll to where it says Copy Link Location on the context menu, and left click on that, then...Go to your [SIG]....

    Or the easy way:
    Place your cursor on your forum name it should turn into a pointing finger hand.
    Right click, and select Copy Link Location, then...

    Go to your [SIG] edit page, click to position the blinking cursor. Then go to the Insert Link icon Shown in red:
    Inserting a screenshot into forum posts-ll.jpg
    Click to open, then right click, and paste.

    You will see the link location URL, https://www.sevenforums.com/members/koolkat77.html show up in blue, When you preview your SIG it should transform into koolkat77 Some URLS do, Some do not.

    You may have to fiddle with the positioning by using the Left, Center, or Right Alignment settings, and spacing, there are limitations.
    Again if it does not transform from the URL to your name just highlight the URL, and type your name, preview, and test.

    To test without leaving the edit page/tab, place the pointy finger over your name, and press on the scrolling wheel of your mouse, and your profile page should open in a new tab.

    !!Hurray!! !!Hurray!!

    On a more serious side, Yes, you are very welcome!

    The trick now would be to embed a link into those beautiful sigs you make!

    Arc, do you think that is doable?
