I don't know how you did it, but both links point to this forum, not to the items....
Here the correct clicketies:
cheap prepaid phones[^]
buybackdmv - Professional Profile[^]

Good point - I have sometimes this problem when I enter a Link as a LINK ... but not allways ... but if you have a good advice ... 
|
|
|
|

I first start the new message, then go to the other tabs (article and user) and use "cut" instead of "copy", this way I am 100% sure, that the URL I want to paste is coming from the tab I want to report and not pasting something older from the clipboard.

I made it nearly the same and if you look to the Link-URL you see that it isn't the adress of this Forum ... and both adresses are not the same ...
Which widget do you use ? The widget "link" or the widget "[^]" ?
|
|
|
|
|
I think most users on this board use the [^], after which you copy the URL and paste it in twice, between the two "", and then copy the article title or user name and paste it before the first </a>.
The source ends up looking like <a href="url">text</a>[<a href="url" target="_blank">^</a>] if I managed to show it correctly!

Thanks for explaining it - I corrected my 1st post ... and now it works ... or as we say in german "kaum macht man es richtig dann funktioniert es auch ..." or in english "as soon you do it right it works ..."

I don't. I just paste the URL and the editor makes it clickable automatically.

I've been doing it the hard way all this time?!

OK, but how do you automatically get the [^] part at the end?

I get the first part automatically, but not the [^]. Are you doing anything before pasting it? If I first hit [^] and paste it before that, the [^] link goes back to this forum.

Do you have the "Use Markdown formatting" option ticked under the message?

Yes, and now I see that unticking it makes it work. Thanks! 
Not that I can see what it should have to do with it, but the hamsters are known to be fickle.

Enabling Markdown tends to stop it recognising Markup. 
|
|
|
|

You use the Markup way.
We don't use markup, we just paste the link in the editor and the editor takes care of the rest.
EDIT: I should have read the full thread before answering, you already found it out.
By the way... remove the link pointing to Richard, not that next sunday he gets added to OG's Still Alives list

I removed the link, but it would have been interesting to leave it in to see what would happen. 😈

I just paste the URL into the message body and the hamsters do all the rest for me.
Occasionally it stops working but it's usually ok if you paste before a CRLF

Hey Ralf, read the follow-ups above for a much easier way!

I have read it (some time before because each response bring up a notification to me).
Sometimes it could be useful to ask a question like this (and to make a mistake like I have made) to get better Information ...
I would try next time ... (I suppose the next Spammer is waiting allready ... )

By the way... if you select some text and the hit ctrl+v to paste a URL, then the selected text remains and gets enclosed by the html. What means the selected text is the visible part of the link.
Example 1: Selecting nothing and pasting www.codeproject.com
if you select some text and the hit ctrl+v to paste a URL CodeProject - For those who code[^]
Example 2: Selecting "a URL" and pasting www.codeproject.com
if you select some text and the hit ctrl+v to paste a URL[^]
And what the scripts do for me:
Example 1: Selecting nothing and pasting www.codeproject.com
if you select some text and the hit ctrl+v to paste a URL <a href="http://www.codeproject.com">CodeProject - For those who code</a>[<a href="http://www.codeproject.com" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]
Example 2: Selecting "a URL" and pasting www.codeproject.com
if you select some text and the hit ctrl+v to paste <a href="http://www.codeproject.com">a URL</a>[<a href="http://www.codeproject.com" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]

I use the full link clicking with my mouse wheel... same effect than the [^] (New Windows) but with more surface to be clicked.
But I don't build the link myself, I just paste the URL and the background scripts of the site make it clickable and with the [^] at once.
