You can simply type (or copy and paste) the address into the post. For example:

Typing http://example.com

will, when the you submit the post, come out looking like this when you read the post:
http://example.com

OK.... so how do you make a word in your descriptive text to become the link?

In other words if I type "Have a look at this" How do I create "...this" to beome the link

1. Type in "Have a look at" (no quotes)

2. Then leave a space

3. Then click on the link icon and type or paste in your URL.

4. Click OK and the URL will be pasted in for you with the appropriate HTML and the text of the URL repeated and highlighted in blue.

5. Type in the descriptive text in the highlighted area.


Hope that helps (and makes sense) Andrew
