Scratch

Just in case you aren't familiar with the term - the URL is the address to the webpage that shows up in the top bar of your browser when you are viewing the project.

I tried doing it in HTML but it didn't work.

Scratch Forums uses BBC code a'nd not HTML tags. You can see t'he linky code here 

Linking with BBC code

But if you want my knowledge, you can continue reading my talk 

There are two kinds of links, the first one is "link without custom name";
http://scratch.mit.edu

Here's t'he code:

[url]http://scratch.mit.edu[/url]

Using "custom" names
It will looked like this:
Scratch

code:

[url=http://scratch.mit.edu/]Scratch[/url]

Hope that helps!

All you have to do is copy & paste the URL into where you want the link, though that won't work on the Scratch forums. On the forums you'll have to use this:

Code:

[url=Put URL Here]What you want to show[/url]

Anyway, I hope that this helps!

thanks    - that really helped 

Well I'm glad to hear that this helped! :)

With regards,

ErnieParke

btw this is a really helpful forum thread 

If I wanted to have just the URL, and no fancy text, you can just do this:

[url]http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=109877[/url]

... which would make http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=109877.

But if I wanted to add some extra text, I could do this:

[url=http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=109877]My Forum Post[/url]

... which would make My Forum Post.

Hope this helps.

I have a question:
How do you add a link onto your description or comment?

when gf clicked
say [I want to add a link!] for (4) secs

Just copy a link from a project, forum or a wiki and put it in your comment. This will appear:
If you made a link to a wiki page, (link to wiki) will appear.
If you made a link to a forum post, (link to forums) will appear.
If you made a link to a project,(link to project) will appear.

I wish the links opened in new tabs =/
