Quote by author, link a word - two questions

I haven’t been able to suss out how to quote another forumosan such that above the quote it doesn’t only say “quote” but instead “Xyz wrote:” or so … how’s it done?

Also, how can I link a word rather than pasting a long url directly into the post?

Thanks for the help! Xpet.

If you want to see how someone did something, press the ‘quote’ button to see how they typed it, don’t press ‘submit’ or you’ll look silly

BFM, thanks for mis-quoting me! :wink: I shall try my newly acquired knowledge soon! Thanks! Xpet
