can i use the [reply] [/reply] tags in posts on my forum?. If so how do i set it up to use them. Am a newbie at this game

If you mean you want something hidden in a post, you will use the hidden tags. When someone replies to the post, the hidden things will appear.

Code:

[hide]Hidden Text, Image, Links, etc.[/hide]

thanks for that. so can i add something like 'please reply to see link'. if so how?

Please follow this thread.
