I was asked not long ago how to post shortened links such as 'Click Here' on the forum and I gave a long and rather complicated reply.
As it turns out my instructions were misleading, there is a much simpler method of adding link with shortened text to forum posts which Austin the technical guru has told me about.
1) Type the text that you want to appear on your forum post as a link - 'Click Here' for example
Hold down the left mouse button to highlight your text and click on the unbroken chain icon at the top of the comment box.
Copy / paste the url into the dialogue box
Select 'Post Link in New Window' from the drop down box (2nd one down)
Click on the insert button and your link should appear click here
