    If you type in a word, then highlight, then click on the oval shape above, same box as you select all the smileys. Then copy the www. Address from the age your linking to. Paste this as a hyperlink.
    If I get chance I'll do screen grabs over the weekend if you still cannot do it :p

    it difficult to write it without it going live and changing to the word then you cant read it, so if i do it with normal brackets then you use the square ones next to the letter P

    (url=

    then highlight the address bar on the page you want copy and paste it in

    (url=https://www.thetriumphforum.com/)learnthis(/url)

    so learnthis would be the red word
    after the red word (/url)
    and thats it
    so where I put ( you put [ and I put ) you put ]

    Its comming up error cos I used the wrong brackets on purpose to show it writen
