Hyperlinking question

[BrandonW77]

I have a question about how to hyperlink in a thread. I know how to make a hyperlink so when you click on a word it takes you to a thread. But I've seen other versions of hyperlinking where you click on a word and it takes you to a certain post within the thread. This could be handy for my league thread but after searching I can't find any instructions.

So how do I create a hyperlink that takes you to a certain post within a thread?

Thanks in advance for any help.

In the top right corner of every post is a number. Yours says #1, mine will say #2 unless someone beats me to it. That number is hyperlinked. Right click and copy link location to retrieve that link, paste it as a normal URL.

Excellent. Thanks Famine, much appreciated.

@Famine
How does one do such with other websites?
And how does one change the words of the link?
attempt

What do you mean, @Swagger897?

Well I'm just trying to attempt to link a site, say this from Bloomberg:
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-...pered-reassurance-en-route-to-quarantine.html

And get it to say something along the lines of, " Here ebola was recorded.... blah blah..." with "Here" being the link to the site.

Highlight the word "here" click the link icon and insert the URL you just posted.

Ahh....
Many thanks to you. Not a major computer/IT/electric freak but I know the basics. This was just something I was wondering and never played with those buttons..

Of you can type it out, I find it easier than faffing.

nah, there's a button already made for it. Not a big coding guy either.
