Blue "Link" text...

How 2 ?

By neone6 on June 29, 2011 12:18:21 PM from WinCustomize Forums WinCustomize Forums

I wonder how you get a link 2 show just as the word "link" in blue... And what if I submit, say a WB and want 2 "Link" 2 the wall and vice versa...How should I know where 2 link & where they will wind up before they´re Moderated ? (Still bit stupid on some thingz)

Easy, type the word link. Then highlight it, go to the link button which will be highlighted also, paste or type in your link. Done.

 

Example in use....

Hey everyone, click on this link to see some really awesome artwork.

 

You get the url (link) by going to your skin, in the gallery, and copying/pasting the url into the link box as I stated above.

As far as before they're moderated, you can't know. It is against WC policy to link to skins that are in moderation....this kinda defeats the purpose of moderation.

But I see alot of skin "descriptions" with "link" 2 this and that... You write the skin description when you upload ????? BEFORE moderation

You may link to things ALREADY in the gallery from the description for a skin that you haven't uploaded yet, sure. Just don't link to skins that aren't yet in the gallery.

 

In other words, you may link FROM skins in moderation, but not link TO skins in moderation.

I hope I'm making sense.

You can put in your links when you send to moderation.

 

It makes no differences to  moderation that you have links.

Lol. But if I upload a WB and a Wall at the same time Can I use the adresses they get "instantly" and "cross-link" them although they´re both in Mod so it´s done if/when approved ? (Just 2 be sure)

did you get an answer? open the page, copy the http address and paste it in you description. the word "link" will automatically show up instead of the http address.

No, because the instant address is the address of the skin/wall in moderation.

Just wait until they are out of Moderation. Isn't that clear enough?

Once they are approved...and IF it's needed that, say, a wall and a Windowblind skin need each other's links in the description you can always add them by way of a skin update...

Just an effort to be helpful, not annoying.

 

A skin update would cause the skin to go back through moderation. Do you mean a description update?

im pretty sure even a description update makes it go back through moderation,cause you still have to reload the preview pic and file despite that yr just changing the description..........

No, if you only update the text part of the description, it doesn't go back through moderation.

Wouldn't matter either way... the links would still thus be relevant ...once re-approved...

Correct. Only if you upload a new screenshot or file, does it go into mod. Editing just the description part is an immediate change, so you can edit and add links as much as you need to without it going to mod.
