Solved How to make link's short on your sig

[benjy206]

I want to put a few tut's on my sig and I just put system restore and it's the full URL. Just wondering how to put it as just system restore as i seen in others

Hello Brendan,

You could add it like this below:

System Restore


{URL="link address"]Text to display[/URL}

[COLOR=red][B]{[/B][/COLOR]URL="http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html"][B]System Restore[/B][/URL[B][COLOR=red]}[/COLOR][/B]

I've updated your signature with this, but you can still change the text to what you like.

Thanks again Shawn just seems to be not working for me. Here is how i did it.

Tried a few other ways also. Like adding in "{URL="...."without "{URL="....."
Could you post the exact way you would type it in without any " or brackets and so fort please.

EDIT: Worked there

 

[benjy206]

Tried again there and it shows at my sig as you can see?

Try this
[url="address"]Here[/url]
With the address between the quote marks and change Here to whatever you wanted to say.

i just type the words, highlight them then click the link icon in the editor then add the url , never done it any different way.

 

[Brink]

Glad we could help Brendan.

Yeah, I used { instead of [ so it would show the full code.
