Updated post #60. Lisa Kay how do you do the link like that?
Carol, I did yours under Example, right before the ❀✿❀✿❀✿❀, so if you don't understand these instructions, you can just copy that.How to Hyperlink to a Specific Post
Do you want add a hyperlink from your ~ Reading Goals ~ Folder to your post in a challenge? (This folder may have a different name, depending on which group you post in.) Here’s how:
1. Once you set up your folder, click on the “some html is ok” look-up at the top of the comment box and follow the Link directions.
2. You want to copy the following from the look-up
<a href="http://www.goodreads.com">my link text</a>3. Replace the section of html code (in-between the two quotation marks - made bold in the example above above) with the post's link.
4. You can copy that by placing your cursor on the "post's time stamp" (for lack of a better term) located in the beige bar.
5. On the drop down menu, use your right-mouse-click button on “Copy shortcut” and copy link location.
6. Next, change the “my link text” to what you want (such as the name of the challenge).
<a href=" http://www.goodreads.com"> my link text </a>
Example:
<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/3... ~ Read Your Name ~ Message #60
Result:
~ Read Your Name ~ Message #60
❀✿❀✿❀✿❀❀✿❀✿❀✿❀❀✿❀✿❀✿❀❀✿❀✿❀✿❀❀✿❀✿❀✿❀
Standing Out
Instead of my link text, do you want to make a certain link bold?
See the part of the html code where you would insert your link name, just insert the bold commands:
<a href="http://www.goodreads.com"><b>my link text</b></a>Results:
