kylomas Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Hi,How do I create a text anchor for a URL when replying to a post? I played around with the test thread to no avail and read the Help file for the forum.Why is there a line under my number of post that says "0 Warning Points"? I don't recall seeing that before.Thanks,kylomas Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us.

BrewManNH Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 For a text anchor, do you mean substituting something like this -> http://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit to something like this LINK HERE? If so, there's 2 ways to do it, one is by clicking the icon on the editor that looks like a chain with a plus sign and entering the URL in the dialog box that opens up. The second way, the manual way, is to enter it like this [ url="http://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit"]LINK HERE when entering text in the editor.. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

kylomas Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 BrewmanNH, Thanks, I tried using the "link" icon but when I specify "link to anchor in text" as the link type I get the message "No anchors available in the document". I'll use the other option that you offered. kylomas Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted July 25, 2012 Moderators Share Posted July 25, 2012 As for the second question, I've seen it for the past month or two. It used to say "Warn Status", but since the most recent forum update it shows number of warning posts as you mention. This is visable, as far as I am aware, to you and the mods only.

kylomas Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 AdmiralAlkex, Of course, works perfectly...I tried selecting the text after I pushed the button, not before.

Tripredacus Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 What's an anchor? If you want like in BrewMan's post then simply select the text you want turned into a link before pressing the button.IPB used to use something called SnapBack which worked like anchors, but its just easier to use the post url, which you can get if you click on the # link on the top right of every post.

kylomas Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 Tripredacus, Thanks, I am aware of the # link for forum posts. The link that I was referencing was external to the forum. kylomas Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us.
