How do I add a hyperlink to another site in my Fluther answer?

Type a parenthesis, then what you want the text to read, followed by an ending parenthesis and a colon, followed by the url. No spaces.

So, if you wanted to link to google, you would type this—> ” Google ” : http://www.google.com/, but without the spaces.

The end result is—> Google.

Like this? Google

@flutherother Almost. Just don’t put a space between the colon and parenthesis (EDIT: quotation mark), and you’ve got it.

I think I am there. Thanks for the help. Jeeez are some people just born knowing this kind of stuff. PS those are inverted commas not parenthesis.

Ooops. In my head I was saying quotation marks, but my fingers were typing parenthesis. Stupid fingers.

Thanks, I found this interesting because my copy and paste works. Always great to find a new way to do things.

hmmm

@gravity YAY FER ME!

An instruction example is written in small font below the “Answer this question” box.
See it?

So there is. I had followed the link sign previously but then got lost. Thanks for all the help.

Good job, jellies!

The small print beneath the answer box does illustrate it, but you have to look at it kind of abstractly to see what it’s telling you unless you’re already familiar with that type of styling. Once you know how to do it, you can see that that’s what the styling instructions are telling you.

It is obvious now. I don’t know why I didn’t see it before. Thanks for all the help. Fluther must be the most helpful community on the Internet :-)

see if i can manage it too

Yay been waiting for a week to work it out, many thanks to you :)
