I think I asked it correctly. I just want to post the blue hyperlink address, not the entire text. Please explain the method.
Thank you

Copy the website address (URL) and paste it into your post. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...-an-article-into-a-hyperlink-post#UNREAD

Or use the Full Editor to insert a link and give it a name. bigwhoop's thread

Ok so I copy it from the box above the toolbar with a right click and choose copy? Is the "paste" part the blue ball with the two chain links in the box?
I'll wait for your reply.

I don't know where to find the Full Editor method so I'll leave that alone.

I used to post great photos using PhotoBucket but they are now useless. I can't seem to find a hosting site that doesn't contain a bunch of crap.

Thanks for taking the time. There were no computers when I was in college.

Yes on the copy part. You can paste what you've copied into the Quick Reply box and when you post your reply it should be a clickable link. Or, you can paste into the "blue ball with the two chain links in the box." If you're seeing that, you are in the Full Editor. If you go this route, after you paste into the box that opens up and click OK you'll get another box that opens up, wherein you'll enter text you want to appear for the link. That is what I did in my previous post where the link reads "bigwhoop's thread."

Ok thanks again! Baby steps until I get familiar with it.

Still no luck. It stays black, not blue. Maybe I'll' check utube.
