Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Blog Link


Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I have added our blog address to our signature.  Now, How do I make it a direct link????

Thanks for all help.

Judy

Judy,

I have done it to mine, and I think what I will tell you is the way, but you will need to experiment with it.

Go into your signature area of your "user details" and take this section:

Check out our blog:  rvpilgrims.blogspot.com


Delete back to the colon and then hit enter to go to another line before putting in your blog address.  A lot of times, one has to put the internet addresses, whether blogs or links to online sources on a line by themselves.  This applies to signatures or within the body of a message.

I have also found that if I am using Mozilla Firefox, it won't post any links on the forum, but Internet Explorer will.

There are a couple ways to make the link clickable...

1) Add "url" (enclosed in brackets) [  ] before the text and "/url" enclosed with brackets after the text. This produces http://rvpilgrims.blogspot.com

2) You can embed the url so it isn't visable using the "url=http://rvpilgrims.blogspot.com" then add text followed by "/url".  Again you need to enclose the url with brackets.  Looks like this, Your Blog.

Hope that makes sense, it's hard to post code without it being active.  Be sure the url you enter is the full address, ie. includes the http://

Dan,

Now, I have to thank you for the way to do it using your method, which I think is HTML code.  I'll have to experiment with it because it can be a lot "cleaner" and take up less space than creating a whole new line.  I knew a method existed to do it this way, I just didn't know the process.

Ordinarily, I break out in hives just thinking about HTML, but your explanation might just make the process of links easier for me.

Thanks a bunch.

Terry

Here's a site that lists some BBCode. I think it will work here, but at the bottom of the page it shows the HTML code I was trying to explain. I thought it might help if people could "see" the code rather than try to understand my post.

The profile section of the forum has a signature section. That is where you key in the information that will be visible when posting a comment. After typing the blog address (i.e. www.waggintails.blogspot.com) click and drag thru the address. A button directly below the U (underline) button will appear. This button has what looks like to links of a chain. Clicking this button will then take you to a small windows where you type in the address again. Now the signature will contain an active link.
