Hello all,

Please can someone tell me (possibly again!) the special Gransnet way to do links? I have just tried to put one in a post by copying & pasting, but it doesn't seem to work.

Thanks in advance,
Techno Numpty of Devon

(silly isn't it, I can format Excel so it does calculations, but don't seem able to post a link!)

Hi phoenix,

All the instructions are just below the message box - where it says "Links".

You can either put two square brackets either side of your link here or you can just tick the box that says "Convert links automatically", just under the message box.

Happy linking! smile

Thanks Josie,

Trust me not to notice or read the instructions, perhaps for a moment there I was in touch with my masculine side!

If you were REALLY in touch with your masculine side, phoenix, you never would have admitted you'd been doing anything wrong in the first place!

"Instructions? What instructions? Someone must have moved them there since I last looked" grin.

Good point, and well made effblinder !

Now all I need is for someone to actually click on the link!
