[QUOTE="eric, post: 358747, member: 22327"] you just want to post a link to a thread or post on this forum in a thread on this forum? easy! to link a thread, navigate to that thread and note the title and the url/address in your address bar. example: title: Mac-Forums Switchers FAQ and Information url: [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49528[/url] then, in the thread you want to post the link, paste the title, then highlight the title and hit the "insert link" button (looks like a globe with a chain link). then paste the url into the pop-up that appears and hit "ok". you can do the same with a specific post in a thread by cicking on the number that appears on the top right of a post. say i wanted to just link the first post of the switcher f.a.q. in the first example, i would click the little #1 on the first post and a new tab/window will open with just that post. copy that url (in this case: [URL="http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=301331&postcount=1"]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=301331&postcount=1[/URL]) and paste it as shown in the first example. you can also quote others to see how they "code" a post if you want to figure out how something like this is done. :) [/QUOTE]
