I'm having trouble adding a hyperlink. I'm not too sure if it's my new computer or changes to LuLa.
Hi Tom,
It's the changes to LuLa. Currently, as of this writing, the forum software offers no option to embed a URL automatically, so it can only be done manually (which is a drag, and should be fixed).
Clicking the "Insert Hyperlink" by itself, currently, does not provide a dialog but it just adds the 'url' open and close tags. If a text was selected first, then the tags enclose that text.
One currently needs to edit that opening 'url' tag by adding "=yourhyperlink" (without the quotes ) after the "[url" bit and before the "]", so between the square open tag brackets. The content between the URL tags can be anything, a hyperlink, text, an image link, etc. .
It should be fixed IMHO, like it was before (or better), by at least offering a dialog (e.g. as attached) where the user can enter/paste a URL.
Cheers,
Bart
P.S. Unfortunately we seem to have also lost the ability to use colors for text. I tend to use a blue color on my hyperlink text to make it stand out in the midst of regular text in a line. It's a bit more work but much easier to read. Also hyperlink text underlining seems to be gone/missing.
