| Hi Matt, Thanks for the nice new forum. Looks great! I have a few questions: 1. It does not seem possible to use descriptive text for a hyperlink. It used to be possible to provide a link to a web page and instead of displaying the entire link, just provide some descriptive text, e.g: click here. 2. It does not seem possible to edit a quotation when replying, so that just the salient point is displayed rather than a big slab of text. Is it possible to change any of this for us? -Peter

| | There is a hyperlink option located next to the add picture link in the reply task bar. The hyperlink option looks like a globe and chain link. Anybody figure out the quote thing yet? |

| Hi Poops, I tried the hyperlink button but it only inserts the link - there doesn't seem to be an option to insert descriptive text.

I just highlight the text I want and copy, then paste it into my reply, put quotes around it, and "bold" it. Works for me!

Yeah, or I guess you could insert a table like this Ý , but it would be good if it was less of a manual operation.

| <a href="test">test</a> = test
That's the only way I can get it to auto link. |
