Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I have added our blog address to our signature. Now, How do I make it a direct link????
Thanks for all help.

Judy,
I have done it to mine, and I think what I will tell you is the way, but you will need to experiment with it.
Go into your signature area of your "user details" and take this section:
Check out our blog: rvpilgrims.blogspot.com
Delete back to the colon and then hit enter to go to another line before putting in your blog address. A lot of times, one has to put the internet addresses, whether blogs or links to online sources on a line by themselves. This applies to signatures or within the body of a message.
I have also found that if I am using Mozilla Firefox, it won't post any links on the forum, but Internet Explorer will.

There are a couple ways to make the link clickable...
1) Add "url" (enclosed in brackets) [ ] before the text and "/url" enclosed with brackets after the text. This produces http://rvpilgrims.blogspot.com
2) You can embed the url so it isn't visable using the "url=http://rvpilgrims.blogspot.com" then add text followed by "/url". Again you need to enclose the url with brackets. Looks like this, Your Blog.
Hope that makes sense, it's hard to post code without it being active. Be sure the url you enter is the full address, ie. includes the http://

Dan,
Now, I have to thank you for the way to do it using your method, which I think is HTML code. I'll have to experiment with it because it can be a lot "cleaner" and take up less space than creating a whole new line. I knew a method existed to do it this way, I just didn't know the process.
Ordinarily, I break out in hives just thinking about HTML, but your explanation might just make the process of links easier for me.
The profile section of the forum has a signature section. That is where you key in the information that will be visible when posting a comment. After typing the blog address (i.e. www.waggintails.blogspot.com) click and drag thru the address. A button directly below the U (underline) button will appear. This button has what looks like to links of a chain. Clicking this button will then take you to a small windows where you type in the address again. Now the signature will contain an active link.
Thanks for all help.
