Hi there

type this into your sig, save and done

[ URL="http://www.yourlink.com"]Your clickable text[ /URL]

take out the space before the first url and the 2nd url tho

[purplenut]

Cheers Matt
will try it

[purplenut]

nope lol

[mattJT]

sorry...


the "www.yourlink" bit needs to be your page and the your clickable text bit, needs to be what you want to call your link.

Give us a minute and i'll post yours.........

[mattJT]

type this but take out the spaces as before....


[ URL="http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61495"]My Feedback[ /URL]

should when no spaces =

My Feedback


lets hope it works.......

[mattJT]

it worked

[purplenut]

So (SORRY) what do i a to do now?
And where lol

[mattJT]

basically, in the above post where there's the full version of your link, copy and paste that into your signature, then delete the space by the first URL and the space by the 2nd URL.

Then when you post the signature, will just show my feedback

ps once you've taken out the spaces you won't see it as just the two words until you post it.

I had to put the two spaces in to show you, as otherwise will just post as two word link.

[purplenut]

When you say the SPACE what is the spaceas there is no space is it between {}[]?

[mattJT]

the first space is at the very start between

[spaceURL

and the second is

at the end

feedback[space/URL

so the start looks like [URL and the end is feedback[/URL

[purplenut]

aaaaaaahhhhhhhh
what am i doing wrong?

[mattJT]

erm, well you've got the two word link there, but not the link itself, just tried it out on my signature and worked (sorry)?

All I can suggest is to make sure that the text has copied and pasted correctly? there's no reason why the link I posted (when spaces taken out) shouldn't work??????

(I wonder if your signature content is overall too long tho, there's quite a lot in there)

[mattJT]

nothing wrong with length of your signature....copied and pasted it into mine and works fine.

So must be something going awry when you copy and paste the above link, a spot of punctuation must be missing?


Try centering your signature, just tried to do the same link to your other tamiya link, but wouldn't work as was too long, so centering the signature could save you characters?
