Links Question

Catwoman · Jan 31, 2012

Maybe someone can help me here, because I'm ready to bash my head against the wall!

I used a photo from Flickr on my blog and I wanted to leave a comment with a link to my site -- only I can't figure out how to do that since I don't see a link icon in Explorer like there is in email.

Others in the Comments section were able to do it. It should be an easy thing to do, right?

HELP!

I'm not sure whether you need HTML links, or just link tags, or whether you just need to copy and paste the link.

You could put in the link tags manually and see if that works.

An example:

[url="mywebsite.com"]Hi There![/url]

Where mywebsite.com is your full link, which would show as:

Hi There!

If you just want the link posted:

[url]mylink.com[/url]

Which would show as:

mylink.com

I'm going to separate your question from this thread since they are not related.

Opps, sorry I posted in the wrong place.

I'm such a non-techie, but from what you're saying I should literally type:

singlewritermomrants.wordpress.com

and after I hit POST, it should be in blue?

YES!!!!!!! It did it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!

You have no idea how long I have been googling for a simple answer, and couldn't find one.

I assume you posted and tested your link. I'm glad it worked for you.

In case I wasn't clear (or for anyone who comes along and reads this thread later), you do want to use your full URL link; I just used mylink and mywebsite.com as simple examples.
