REMEDIAL question:

[RBennett]

Ok, I know this will probably sound INCREDIBLY stupid but I just don't know how to do it; how do you change a link to another word or phrase? I've seen several times someone will post a link to "their gallery" or whatever and I would like to know how. Thanks!!

On the DIS, in the reply box click highlight the words you want to link. Then click the the icon that looks like a globe and a chain link (the insert link icon). In the pop up box enter the URL for the website you want those words to link too. Hope that helped some.

What do you mean? It looks like it worked to me. Each link takes you to right where it says.

yeah but it took me 4 tries, first i copied the url wrong, then 2 more times to realize i couldn't just paste the url i had already, then the last to realize i needed to change the second part to the words i wanted...so goes the life of the computer-challenged

Thank you for asking this. I've asked before on other sections of the board and either never got a response or got one that I couldn't understand.

And thank you for posting this info and responding to the question.

And Jann, I'm sure I'll find a way to mess it up when I try to do this, so don't feel bad!

Let's see if I can figure this out...

OMG! It worked! Thanks so much for posting this!

Another Thank You for asking this question. I had just added my smugmug site to my signature last week and wondered how to do this. Now, thanks to you, it's working.
