Hmm. [ url=http://www.thesite.com ]Click on this to get to the site[ /url ] — is that what you mean? Just remove the spaces. Like, [ url=http://www.rickresource.com ]RickResource[ /url ] will turn into RickResource after you remove the spaces.

Like this, replacing { and } with [ and ]


{url=http://www.rickenbacker.com.}Best Guitars in the World{/url}

Best Guitars in the World


You can also search for "BBcode" on the internet for examples.

This is why we have the "code" bbcode:

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.rickresource.com]Rickresource[/url]
Would result in this link:
Rickresource
