Links?

In my previous forum provider I was able to add a forum link. It's like making a category except when you click it, it sends you to a different link. Like just a regular link with a description. is this possible to do?

You mean it appears as a forum, but when you click, it re-directs you to a separate site?

There is a way you can do this

Try Method 1 which is found at the end of the following link, near the bottom

=> CSS Tricks

Method 2

1. Log Into your forum

2. Navigate to:

Admin Panel\General\Categories & Forums

3. Select the forum you want to add this link to

4. Where it says "Category name:" add the link code

i.e

<a href="http://www.your_link.com">Link name</a>

5. Select "Save"

That forum will now have a link instead of a name

Thanks.

After I click on Admin Panel\General\Categories & Forums
where I click to chose my forum?
I did click on the general and I dont see "category name"

thanks

Once you have navigated to Admin Panel\General\Categories & Forums select from the right hand side of the forum you want,

It will say Category Name or Forum Name

What I mean is, you can see text. Not just the link, but like

if the URL was www.test.com
I don't want it to show www.test.com
I want it to show Test, and when you click test it redirects you to www.test.com
Anyway to do this?

You would need to add a link like such

Code:

<a href="http://www.test.com">Test</a>

This will show the word test however will still act as a link
