Older Gen. needs tutorial on links in forum sign. and how to edit my posts
I have very limited exposure to computers and the internet. I'm embarrassed and clueless on how to ad links to threads on my signature in the forum. Some very nice people has help me to ad my wish list. It still doesn't look right on my posts, like others but it works. People are editing their post that they already typed out. I usually just re-post because I don't know how to do it any other way. Everyone is helpful, but I'd like to learn things through other means. I would appreciate any help that you could give me. Thanks
@cristill13 You have to use the quotation marks before and after the url. You have to change everything I have written in red, but don't edit what I have written in black. If I'm not explaining myself good enough, just ask again... I'm not very good speaking in English.
About the numbers, don't worry, it's easier than you think. Just open the thread you want to use and copy the URL from the top of the screen. In order to copy it, an easy way would be to select the whole URL double clicking on it, and then right click and choose "Copy":

You may find a #latest or something like that at the end of the URL but it doesn't matter, just copy the whole URL.
Now, paste it where I wrote LINK and edit the TEXT YOU WANT TO SHOW:
[url="LINK"]TEXT YOU WANT TO SHOW[/url]
[url="http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/836135/thanks-for-the-gift"]Thank you![/url]
Your wishlist would be:
