    Tech Forum hints & Tips

    Hi and welcome to the forum, I thought it would be useful to post a few hints and tips on how to use the features of our site.

    Start with this one that came up today.


    Displaying your signature.

    Your signature is something you create using your user cp, take a look at mine below, its useful for displaying info, gamer tags etc.

    To turn on your signature to be displayed when you post, simply scroll down below the editor box where you are typing your reply or new thread and make sure you tick Show your signature.


    Once enabled this feature stays on until you untick it.

    Posting links in code format

    If you want to post a link and dont want this to be a live link (click to go to it) then you need to use the BB Code called code. most forums dont allow live links.

    In the edit box window just above where you type you will see a row of little icons and some formatting tools, if you hover over them they display there names.

    The code icon looks like this >> Hidden Content << simply click it and add code inbetween the tags.

    E.G. [code]this is the link here[/code] this is how it looks before you post and the forum converts it.


    This is after the forum converts it
    Code:
    this is your link here
