FAQ and posting links

Hey,the FAQ page isn't working,it says server not found or something. I wanted to check how you post links but then words come up instead of the link. Like it would say "This" and it would link to another page?

Hey there.

As you type your message you'll notice a little icon in the button bar just above the message box that looks like a little planet Earth with a chain link in front of it. If you highlight any part of your message with the mouse and click that button it'll ask you to insert the address of your link. That's what most people use.

Alternatively you can include:
[noparse]your text

or

your text[/noparse] to do the same thing.

For example:
[noparse]Link to boards![/noparse] to give you:

Link to boards!

Easy peasy!
