How do you add a link in the shoutbox? Is it possible? |

Thanks. Got it working to where if you click on it you will be taken to the web page, but can't figure out where to put the name so that instead of seeing the code, you see the name. |

Thank you MarcusG, that is what I was looking for. Is it possible to change the font color of the link? I used the html code for it, but it did not work. |

Yes it is possible. Open up the file /includes/bbcodes/url_bbcode_include.php and overwrite the code with this code: <?phpTake a look at this line where you define what color the link should have: |

Was never able to get this to work, but am not sure that it isn't because of the character limitation of the shoutbox (200 characters). The link is very long and when i add the code you suggested, there was no change to the link color. Thanks anyway for your help. |

well, then try with a normal link that's not so long - like ex. http://www.google... - then it should work..

If the problem is very long links, use http://tinyurl.com or another shorten link service before posting in shoutbox |
