Tech Literate, But Need Help

this is a very simple request i am imagining, but i am stuck none the less. I notice on many peoples sig, they have thread headings that are links to the actual threads...the best i can do is put the thread url on there. I think theyre called hyperlinks but i may be mistaken. i am just looking for a brief explanation on how to do that (put a thread name in my sig and have it link to the actual thread). i would apreciate any help. thank you in advance

Well you already have a link in your signature, it's just a method of replacing that with another, but i think I know what you are getting at.

Try this:

[ url = h t t p :// link you want ] Nameyouwant [ / url ]

I've added the spaces show it shows up, you'd remove the spaces to have it work like this:

Nameyouwant

Np buddy, it's basic HTML but that's a dying art form outside of forum posts lately.

Also if you dont want to type out the tags or are having problems with them just open up a post and use the link button. Copy the resulting code and then cancel the post.
