Referring to threads

Postby BSquared on Fri Jul 30, 2010 9:20 am

This is probably a FAQ, but I couldn't find it. I see people referring to other threads (and even URLs that are distant from HST) with convenient names, like "here," instead of long complicated URLs, so there's obviously something more to the URL tag than just pasting in a URL. How do I do this?

Well, it is covered by FAQ...just not on this site. :p

I think this is what you're after.

Ah! OK, so it's really a lot like the HTML code. I just type Visit phpBB!, and I get a nice tag that directs to the proper URL, right? I've actually had way too much scotch tonight to make it work right, but I think when I'm sober I'll have it ;) Ardbeg Uigeadail, mmm...hmmm...!
