OOC: I have been searching for a way to embed a link with custom text into my character bio but I cant figure out how to do it. I have looked through the post styling guide and found nothing. if someone could help me out that would be great!

Hi Mason, I’m not sure myself but if someone here doesn’t know, our Discord has a room called Exodus that is for query’s on the site. You might have some luck there with people who have some knowledge around that.

Also, quick question, did you receive my email at all about graduation? It may have gone to junk if you haven’t seen it.

-Dave

How long ago was that? I haven’t seen anything. I checked junk and haven’t seen it

-Mason

To answer the question, you use HTML so < a href=”Somelink”>SomeLink< /a> . Just remove the leading space between the < and the “a”

Geoff

thanks, got it!

-Mason

It was only a couple of days before I asked that here. I’ll send another email, double check your spam folder if you don’t see it. Sometimes emails from STF are known to go straight to junk.

-Dave

Links can also be simplified by entering it as [link text](link address).

So if I wanted to link to the STF homepage with the words “STF Homepage” I would type:

[STF Homepage](http://www.star-fleet.com)

and would get

STF Homepage

It’s a little easier than the HTML tag method. No extra text, no attributes, no quotes.

I learn something new every day. Most importantly that the escape character is \

Alright, I think I got it. This is only a test…

-Mason

Yep! Perfect.
