I'm in the process of making a post in MTT and I want to refer to a previous post. If I copy and paste the link the link is so long that it makes the post unreadable due to the width of the page.

So how do I overcome this. Rename the link? Can't figure out how. Help please!

Toro, to the right of the "instant gremlins" there is a list of instant UBB code. Click on the one that says URL, cut and paste in the URL, and name it whatever you want.

when you click URL, it will say type the complete URL, then the next box will say type the text you want to link to the URL. Type something small in the second box, i suggest "link".

you mean do this (www.somehyperlink.com)?

If that's what you mean, just quote my post and look at what I did, it's easy.

tinyurl.com also works for ones the instant UBB code screws up.
