Homepage header!

Hello...

I have a question. On this website, on the Home Page on the top, it has a Forum Welcome Greeting.

It says Welcome To The Support Forum.

Then it says this:

BEFORE POSTING...
- General rules
- The Staff list
- FAQ listing
- Tricks & Tips listing OTHER IMPORTANT/USEFUL LINKS
- Introduce yourself
- How to report an illegal/suspicious board
- About support requests by PM
- List of Forumotion's official support forums

How do I put that on a forum. To make is so the people press General Rules and it brings them there...Can anyone help me?

To add: The whole thing is a simple list of html-links:

<a href="TARGET URL">URL NAME</a>

I know that. But I want links like what is shown in my last post. I want to click a word like

-Forum Rules

And it will pop up a window from the URL its on in the forum..

How do you find HTML links?

I did that, but it wont go on the Homepage Message. I copied to see if it worked, and it didnt.

Then I put it in a post and it worked...Whats wrong?

Code:: <a href="Link--Here"> Name Of Link--Here 3</a>

I did that...On the homepage it didnt work..

I even copied the link on the website and it still didnt work, but it works on posts tho...

try this

Code:: <a href="Forum link here" class="forumtitle">Forum title Here</a> Description here<a href="Forum link here" class="forumtitle">Forum title here</a> Forum description here

but of cause, its did take more than that to make it work just like on this forumotion forum. its up to you to find the way Wink
