Where it says to replace the parentheses, it left out the “less than” symbol at the beginning and “greater than” at the end. That should work.

Unfocused,

Your links don’t work in the comments section. They’re too long and run off the edge of the page. May I pass on some tricks a Whatever reader shared with me?

First, you can make a URL shorter at Tiny URL.com

Second, Use
(a href=”http://www.example.com”>texty stuff

1.replace the parentheses with . I had to use parentheses so wordpress wouldn’t tell me I was using a bad link.

2. paste the URL you are linking (i.e. http://blah blah) between the quotation marks.)

3. replace “texty stuff” with whatever words you want to show up and be the link.

Feel free to delete this comment.
