OK this is probobly a no brainer for most (if not all) but as the title asked; How do I include a link in a topic? I read through the "Forum Help" section but I don't always understand all of the "techno-speak" language. I figure it might be one of the small buttons below but I didn't want to just start experimenting with them.

Thanks for any help,
Mike

Pretty easy 2 step deal.
Step 1. Have the URL (web address) copied into your clipboard. Hightlight it and click Edit then Copy on the menu.
Step 2. In your post you need to do 1 of 2 things 1st click the URL icon above the smilies. Then replace the 'stuff' in the middle of the [ url ] [ /url ] 'tags' To do that highlight it and click Edit then Paste on the menu. The second method is to simply type in the two 'tags' for a link type '[' then 'URL' then ']' then paste in your URL then type '[' then '/' then 'URL' then ']' Don't include the quotes.

To place a link in the box...on a new paragraph make sure there is a space before it. ie:
NOT:
https://armorama.kitmaker.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=PostBoard&file=index&req=reply&forum_id=11&topic_id=9180&post_id=0&page=1
But:
