How can I insert a link or an address in my signature? UBB code doesn't seem to work there, plus I'm not very bright.

Hi Don

I simply entered the full text string to the link in the 'Signature' section of my profile page.

ie, http://www.blahblahblah.com (this should show up as a hyperlink to nothing)

No special formatting or other tricks.

Thanks Scott.

I can't get it to work for an email address though, as you can see.

You can indeed use BBCode there, that's how I setup my signature. But if you don't have certain things formatted correctly, it will likely ignore them.

To link to your email address, you need to add "mailto:" to the front of your email address and wrap the email address in url tags. For example,

admin@surveyorconnect.com

Thanks Wendell

I did mention that I'm not very bright. With your tutoring, I finally got it.

Thanks Wendell

It has nothing to do with brightness... I just happen to be very familiar with BBCode because I've been using it since its inception.
