    Interesting...I figured you could just do it the normal way by writing [/b]tp://www.blablah.com]Blah but I just attempted to do that and alas it didn't work.

    Ya, I tried a similar one and it didn't work either.

    Let's try this:

    However, if you intend to include the link in your signature, simply paste the full URL into your message. Snowboard will automatically make it into a clickable link, as Markup codes are not allowed in signatures. If you forget to include http:// at the beginning, it won't recognize it as a link. Also, if you have further problems, try placing a single space before your link in your signature.

    edit: I typed a space and then typed http://www.yahoo.com and it worked.

    Yep, Horsey is right. :)

    You have to write down the whole url into your sig. It will generate automatically into a link. Normal markup codes doesn't work (except the codes for smilies). :)

    So you if you want to put the link of this thread into your sig, you have to write http://boards.theforce.net/welcome_new_users/b10181/25550688/p1/ . :)


    Edit: And the hint about the space before code is worth a lot. ;)
