How do i post a link?

i often post a website link when i make a comment on this forum.  sometimes the link is 'live' (in blue and underlined) and sometimes it is just in ordinary type.

can anyone tell me how to activate a link so you just need to click on it to be taken to the website?

many thanks.

Hi Kika,

Highlight the text that you would like to link and then click on the link icon (the one that looks like the link of a chain) in the box above, and paste the URL in the box.

Thanks from me too

thanks so much ben.

For those still having probs, hope the info below will help.

How to post a link on YLC.

1. Copy the external link (from the other site) you want to post from the address bar of your browser.

2. Paste into your YLC post.

3. Highlight the link by dragging over it … copy again if necessary.

4. Click the link button that appears in the post box … a chain icon … paste again.

5. In the target box which appears … select either:
• Open in this window/frame … to replace the YLC page, OR
• Open in new window (_blank) … to open a new tab in the viewer’s browser.

:) Good luck!! See pic included below.
