luigi bros Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Every time I try doing this I get a message when I click a link. Other people do it so maybe I'm doing it wrong. What should I do? I'm currently clicking "Insert:Post Link" then in the bottom putting the word and in the top a web address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[post=473420]Test[/post] That's if you're using the "Insert Post Link" option. The Post # can be found by clicking the link at the top right of the post and look at the last number on the URL address that pops up. Otherwise, if it's a link in general: [url="http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=14905"]FE4 THREAD[/url] And you will get this: FE4 THREAD It's all in the BB Code Help that can be found below the post entry box (not on fast reply).

Meteor Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I don't understand what you're talking about; could you post an example? One great way to figure it out by yourself is to quote a person whose behavior you want to imitate, and look to see how he/she did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Like this?[/code] Did it work? It didn't even become a link. What am I doing wrong? I quoted Luster Soldier to try it. Edited July 1, 2009 by luigi bros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rehab Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Click the "Insert Link" app from the posting options, ctrl+v the url when asked, then type the label for it that you want. The preview post function helps when you want to see if you fucked up something like this. Word Edit: You got it. You linked to Hika!Boat saying SoS is homosexual.

Rehab Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Same post as you linked to before. This is weird if you're getting a different page than you want. Show me the exact url of what you want to link to, if it's not a post about Sword of Seals' RNG sucking. Edited July 1, 2009 by Rehab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) What's the "option text"? Same post as you linked to before. This is weird if you're getting a different page than you want. Show me the exact url of what you want to link to, if it's not a post about Sword of Seals' RNG sucking. Nothing now. I'm just asking for the future.

Meteor Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Basically you just have to copy whatever is in the location bar of your web browser from the page you want to link to it. It's not hard. Edited July 1, 2009 by Meteor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
