This is how you create a forum link

[Dork Smurf]

I've seen well over ten threads today each with multiple posts filled with non-functional links that I can't click, and I'm smurfing tired of it.

To make a functional link, all you have to do is type the following without spaces:

[ u r l = Place URL here ] The text you want to display [ / u r l ]

Again, you should exclude the spaces.

If it works, it will look like this: Paizo Inc.

If you don't understand my instructions, please click the "Show" button next to "How to format your text" right below the Submit Post dialog screen. They have some pretty useful info there on how to do all kinds of neat things.

I hope that helps.

Smurf out man!

If that's your biggest gripe, then congratulations.

You must be having a smurfy time online. :P

If only all smurfs could maintain this level of civility while informing other fellow smurfs.

Great. Another smurf thread.

Just a quick note about posting:
Before hitting the submit button, (make sure the cursor is in the text window, or click in the text window) hit Ctrl + A, then Ctrl + C then hit the submit button. This will select all the text and copy it to the clipboard of your computer. This is a good habit to get into, because the more time you take to compose a post, the more likely you are to get spat out to the home page when you hit submit (withOUT your post getting added).

Happy posting!

And Vrock out with your Smurf out!

(That was for you King of Vrock!)

There's another important step to creating a link:

TEST IT!!!

Before you hit Submit, hit the Preview button, click on each link, and make sure they all work.

And if you forget and hit Submit, test all your links anyway. You have an hour to edit your post.
