Hyperlinks in comments to SOTT articles

Hi Jerry,

Here's a link to the help section of the forum software:
http://www.cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?action=help;page=post

Look for the section on hyperlinking.

Hope that helps.

Hi Gonzo,

I'm uncertain whether SMF code is suited for the SOTT page; comments can't be edited.

Love your avatar by the way!
 
Apologies, I misunderstood and thought you wanted to link to SOTT content on the forum. My bad.

I'm not sure what engine they're using at SotT, but I did see a note beneath the comments box:
"(NOTE: Title must be less than 75 characters. URLs in Body will be automatically hyperlinked.)"

So my guess is that if it starts with an http://, it will get linked, provided the link does not go to a disinfo or commercial site, as I assume they don't want to aid those sites in the search engine ranking
benefit from reverse links.

Thanks Gonzo.

I never read that, though I should have. This is another case where I asked for help here without doing enough work beforehand. :-[
