Desperately seeking formatting help!

Friday, January 27, 2012 4:51 PM

Hey, there, fellow 'Coats. Ages ago someone taught me how to create shortcuts between my fics. For some reason, they no longer work. I'm sure it's something miniscule I'm doing wrong. Please help!

Thanks in advance,

Rob

I'm not any kind of expert in this. What I know is entirely borrowed from other people who have showed me how to add links, mouse-overs, and other formatting. Mainly mal4prez.
A while ago, mal4prez posted an excellent formatting document / thread. I use it all the time to format my fics. The document is under mal4prez (if there's any difficulty located m4p, you can find her in the BSR under B for Back Stories), called "I am not a fic". I'm going to go find the thread and bump it.
To add links, I use the following:

I've found that while italics and bolds and such work just fine if I type them in, the mouse-overs and links are squirrelly unless I copy and paste them from one that I know works. So I just copy and paste and alter only the specific number or text.

Thanks, Ebfiddler. Turns out, my the "a href" all became capitalized long ago when the website went through a re-boot. Now all my links look like nothing but code. Anyway, thanks again. Glad to know I was on the right path....
