Hello Poet,

This is done using standard forum 'mark-up' codes, which one learns over time in playing around on the boards. In the example below, I'll use curly-brackets ({}) in the place of square-brackets ([]), so you can see the codes. To put up a link to some other page, but supply your own bolded-text for the link, you would do this:

{url = xxxxxxxxxx} {b}yyyyyyyyyy{/b} {/url}

where xxxxxxxxxx is the URL (http://www.foo.boo, or whatever)
and yyyyyyyyyy is what you want the link text to be.

Note: be sure to use square-brackets ([]) in the above mark-up codes to get it to actually work. You can use the {Preview Post] button while composing to see if you got it right before submitting it.

2a. Can you (anyone) tell me how Bagheera's latest thread could be locked after only two pages?
b. How can we contact him on a locked thread?


The moderators of these boards generally lock up a thread after about 100 posts. I hit 106, so I've been expecting it to happen.

I'll start a new one today.
