Technical Question about Links

2 years ago

So, I've just finished my (very short) entry for the contest, and intend to post a thread in the "Writing workshop" to ask for beta readers.  Problem is, I'm not sure how to post the link to an unpublished story.  Could someone tell me how to post a playable link to an unpublished story?  Thanks a ton!

Allow "sneak preview" under Story Properties

I have it on sneak preview now, but the link on my profile is black and unclickable.  Is there a way to get a clickable link I can post on the forum?

EDIT:  Never mind!  I think I figured it out.  Thanks for your help!

If you don't have the extension yet, now is a good time to get it!

Sadly I can't, as I don't think it's supported by safari, which is the browser I use. :(

Oh yikes, you need to start using a better browser, such as internet explorer.

If you're using the rich text editor (the hideous white box with all the cluttered buttons that only loads onto the page after you wait a couple seconds) there's an icon of a chain link you can use.

Otherwise, you can look up how to do links with html.

Just what you did with the link in plain text is fine though, the extension will make it clickable for a lot of us viewing the post.
