Linking question
« on: Friday 14 December 07 19:58 GMT (UK) »
I posted a message in the Shropshire look-up request board and Lloydy has kindly assisted me. But she recommened that I also post a look-up request in the Worcestershire board, that is connected to my Shropshire topic. She also recommened that I post a link in my Worcester message to my Shropshire message. How do I do that?   ???

Hello

If you know how to copy and paste (control + c then control + v) you should copy the URL from the original thread into the new one, then vice versa.

Alternatively you can type it out.

Each will begin www.rootschat ...

If you do it correctly they will turn into links that others can follow to move between threads.

Let us know if you have difficulties doing it though!

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Hello all,

It seems I posted the How to link threads thread on the wrong board  :(
Sorry about that ... it should have been on this one instead of the Technical Help board.
