Adding Web Links to Discussions

It’s obviously your Lady that’s TV savvy then

I know that the red button turns it off. What more do I need? 

Unless it the green button of course😬😬

Do I cut the green wire or the red wire???

When I post a link into a post, what I do is this. Whilst still composing the post I highlight the link and then go to the link button in the tool bar. This opens the insert/edit link dialog box.(previously illustrated by Steve)  The last option is to open the link in a new tab. The default is no so you have to click on the little arrow and select yes. It is perfect possible to copy and paste a link but without editing but it won't open in a new tab. By all means have another go and I will have a look at it to see where it might have gone wrong or where it has gone right!

The red one, but only when the countdown display shows 1 second remaining. 

I will give DKs method a go

seems a lot of faffing about compared with other method.

 

Can’t tell any different apart from having to open up the link box and click on yes box. Ain’t sure what all the fuss is about, sorry.

By you clicking on open in new window it makes a better experience for many

It is not my method by the way! It was how the forum was designed so it is the correct method for adding links to this forum! What has happened is that people have discovered that short cuts can be cut and pasted. However what cutting and pasting won't do is open the link in a new window. One example of why this would be useful. You have just posted a link. If it has been set to open in a new window I can open your link and switch between your comment on Club Together and the campsite you have linked to which would make it easier for me to ask you further questions whilst searching for information about the campsite. It is also likely that when you open a link posted in a thread you often look at several pages so using the back button to get back to CT becomes far more time consuming than adding the link correctly in the first place?
