Signature line help
I've noticed that many members, in their signature lines, have links to their former hunt reports.
When I edit my profile, I see that I can add a link, but how do I title it "2013 hunt" instead of http://www.......

Thanks

See 'retitle links" by BNagel, about 5 entries below your post.

I think he was referring to links in posts. I don't see a title portion in my profile. An I missing something?

ropati - it works the same in your signature as it does in your posts. here's what i would do:

start a "new post," or reply to a post (this thread would be a good plave to do it, in fact).

format your hunt report and link the way you want using the url button.

when you hit OK, the properly-coded link/title will appear; simply highlight and COPY it, then post the post (or even cancel the post, if you prefer).

go into your profile and paste the code into your signature.

there are probably easier or more efficient ways to do it, but that will do the job and it is easy to follow the steps, even for computer-illiterate folks like us! beer

still not right. I can create a link and re-title it, but it won't let me paste that re-titled link into the signature line in my profile. If so, only the words show up, not as a hyperlink.

I've edited your signature line and inserted what you wanted.

You may have been putting it in the section where it says home page, not signature.

In any case, if you go to your profile you will see what I did and can edit it as needed.

Don't forget to hit submit after the changes or they don't take effect.
