Why won't my links work?

This can be very confusing. Unfortunately for now the way links work is universal throughout all ways you can communicate on this site. In general this will work.

In order to make a link active you must follow the following steps.

1- In your posting, highlight the text you wish to link from.

2- Click on the LINK button in your toolbar.
3- in the popup window type, or preferably paste the destination URL

VOILA! your link text should now be linked.
