Re: Links

Simply copy and paste the URL from the bar that is at the top of most internet browsers into a comment or description, and it will turn it into a link for you  smile  Hope this helps!

Re: Links

Hmm... it should do... make sure that you put a space on each side of the link, so that it turns into a link. This will only work on links to pages on the Scratch website (eg - projects, forum threads, wiki articles...), though - if you're linking to an external website, you'll have to tell people to copy and paste the link, I'm afraid.  hmm

Re: Links

Are you talking about the forums? Make sure to add the [ u r l ] and [ / u r l ] tag to each end of the link respectively.

Re: Links

To link to a page, try the following code:

Code:

[url=addressgoeshere]link text (optional)[/url]

You can also just paste the address, but I'm not sure if that's turned off at the moment.  hmm

I think what MegaLemon needed help with was links in the project notes and comments on the main website, not for the forums.
