TUTORIAL: Making Links
I have written this tutorial more for the new bubblers that have recently joined. But if you have been around the site for awhile and still haven’t yet attempted to put a link in your profile, image description, or bubblemail, this should help.
FOR THE COMPUTER SAAVY: Put quotation marks around the words you want to be the link. Then type a colon. Copy and paste the url address for the page, image, etc. that you want to link to. No spaces anywhere in the code.
BEGINNER STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS: I would suggest printing these out to have next to the keyboard. It will be easier than switching back and forth to this screen.
-Type the words you want to be the link:
Bubblesite for Patricia
-Put quotation marks around the words:
“Bubblesite for Patricia”
-Add a colon at the end:
“Bubblesite for Patricia” :
-Then add the url address for the page/photo you want to link to:
http://patmonty.redbubble.com/
-It should look like this (without the space):
“Bubblesite for Patricia”: http://patmonty.redbubble.com/
-I put a space after the colon so the html code would be visible in this journal. Take out the space and waa-laa! It becomes a link!
NOTE: In a bubblemail, it becomes a link after it is sent. In a comment, it becomes a link after the comment is added. In a journal or profile description, the clickable link is only seen in the public view.
If you have problems or questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
