Sometimes a visual makes more sense than written instructions.

The Bored should post this graphic where everyone who signs on to become an Inmate would see it.
But that wouldn't cover many existing Inmates, and Mark is far from the only one not to post links correctly.

My post wasn't intended to single out Mark. I threw that together because in his original post he wrote,
"(http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/22739-power-trip-a-guide-to-power-tubes-and-their-signature-sounds?page=6)
I tried written instructions from 1973 Shovel but can't get this site on with a simple touch of a mouse."
So I thought I'd create a visual for him. Mark's a good guy.
I agree with you that many long time posters still can't be bothered to post an active link, despite the fact that other people tell them they won't bother checking out what they've pasted, because they can't make the effort (if you can call it an effort).
I'd like to see the ability to easily create more than one link per post. It can be done using Asylum supported HTML , but it takes a little bit of work. E-Stat taught me that one, so thank you to him!
I don't doubt that and had no intention of singling him out. That was why I pointed out he was far from the only one failing to provide easy links.
Now I read further to learn he is at least trying. I know little about computers so don't understand why a simple Copy and Paste wouldn't work?

I don't understand it either. Copy and paste should work for him, unless there's something we're not seeing.
All you have to do for multiples is do an edit and add it in. Easy.
I know it works that way with multiple images, but multiple links?
I just tried it, and had no luck. Could you explain further?
Thanks.
Hi Shovel, thanks for the good words. I tried just one page with your method but to no avail. I'll try some more tonight. I still have the instructions from a few weeks ago you gave me and will try again tonight.
I used to able to do this with Windows before I got changed up to 10. I have the Dummies book for Windows 10 but still can't find an easy answer.
I owe you Shovel for all the extra tutoring you have given me...sincerely...Mark K.
Kindness is its own reward, as the old saying goes.
Since you have the Windows 10 book, I'd start reading about copy and paste, and see where that leads you. With every version of Windows I've ever used, copy and paste has been the same, but maybe 10 is different.
Below are a couple of screen shots of how I created an active link to your reply to me. (the link is at the very bottom of the message)
1. Highlight the address in the upper left.
2. Right click on the highlighted address to open the menu.
3. Left click "copy"
4. Paste it in the Optional Link URL space at the bottom of your message.
5. Click "post message", per normal.
...is indeed effort intensive when accessing this place with a mobile device. The live, clickable link is SOOOO much more convenient.
