Absolutely! I think I will listen to them now more fully.

The music lives on... :sing:

Say: How do you change the text of the link?
Seems like you can drop a link:
And then edit the text for how you want it to appear, as you did in your post:
Hank Shizzoe & Sonny Landreth: Stagger Lee
Very Cool !
How does one do that?

Hello @operadude,

relatively simple, click the logo "insert URL", then insert the link from YT or any other link like this:

Code: Select all

[url=insert link here] Name Interpret - Title [/url]
I hope it is explained understandably.

Thanks for the reply.

Not sure I fully understand: I know how to use the "insert url" button. I'm just not sure how to get the text I want, as you say:
I'm not sure about how to get the "Name Interpret - Title" part.
Do I just type that in?

Is there an option when clicking the "insert url" button to get the fancy "Name Interpret -Title" part?

I guess I'll play around with it. If you could guide me on this, I would be grateful :happy:
I'll Try Now...
Allison Krauss & Union Station

'Well....I..I..I'll Be!!!...', to quote Gomer Pyle (old US TV show).

So my only question is: is there a way I can modify the "insert url" button above to give me this fancier option? As it is, when I press the button, all I get is "[url]" "[url]"

Looks like I could simply add an equals sign ("=") after the first "url", but inside the brackets, add my link, and then after the first set of brackets, enter the text I want.

Is that what you do?

Thanks again for your help!

@operadude

that's exactly how I do it. It worked perfectly for Allison Kraus & Union Station.

If you hold the cursor over the "insert url" button for a while, a hint text also shows you this function. The button only offers both functions together.

Sorry, the videos with actual video don't sound as good.

@wahnsinn
Sorry it took so long to get back to you!

So, I was hoping there was a button selection for the text option of the link button. Guess not.

It looks like the way to do this is by adding an equals ("=") sign and add the url link I want, all of that before the first end bracket ("]"), then after the first right bracket insert the text I want, which is before last bracketed "url", that has the forward slash.

I will try now:

Checking with "Preview" button....OK, got it!
Thanks again for your help!!!
