Link to build thread in signature

[RHOMBUS]

I have seen other users have links to their build threads on here in their signatures, but when I try to use the BB code URL or THREAD, it says it is not allowed. I can understand not wanting external links to some degree, but linking to a thread here would seem to be mostly harmless. Mostly? :ermm:

 

[EastCoastCB]

I've never figured that out, either.

I have a link in my signature. I do not think it is because you are not allowed but because you are not using the right format to post the link...maybe?

 

[RHOMBUS]

Do you remember how you did it, crazycal? Maybe when you first made the link it was allowed and now it's not? Could you copy and paste the code you used here?

 

[Crazy]

I will try later tonight.

it is in the user control panel, edit signature

make sure you're signed in, pick "user cp" at the top of the page

turf: I did all of that but the actual html code and BB codes are refused by the bulletin board program.

I got this set up for you - the signature section of member profiles isn't very friendly...

Thanks, Janet

 

[EastCoastCB]

Could someone please help ME out??


ROLL YOUR OWN... needs a bit of help twisting this one up!

Can't get mine to accept BB URL Code.

 

[EastCoastCB]

Still waiting.

It'd be nice if the signatures were set to allow bb code links after the user has maybe 100 posts or something.

CB paste this in your signature line, other just modify it

Roll Your Own

add this to end [ / U R L ] remove the spaces in between brackets so it looks normal

 

[EastCoastCB]

Nope no luck, thanks anyhow Bansil.

I wonder why Janet, when reading through, chose to help Rhombus but not me.

 

[bansil]

cb look at my sig line now

all I did was take out extra wording and added this to end [/url]

I copied whole post to notepad and then

I removed:
add this to end
remove the spaces in between brackets so it looks normal

and removed spaces in bracket, then copied and pasted into sigline

 

[EastCoastCB]

here's what I'm getting-

BB code url is not allowed.

 

[bansil]

I don't have access to edit your profile, I will see if I can get it done

out of curiosity i just looked at mine again.

i believe the options on the signature dialog box have changed. when i did mine there was an insert link button. it was simple.

now looking, i no longer have that button on the signature dialog box.

fwiw
