Posting a URL in the discussion Forum

I had no trouble entering a URL on a page but can't figure out how to insert one in a discussion such as this. Is it possible? If so, can someone tell me how?
Thanks Do you find this valuable?

it won't appear as hyperlinked until you post it. just copy the url in to your post though and it will appear. there are no special steps you need to take. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

"http://www.google.com

www.google.com


I've never seen a URL be hyperlinked ("clickable") in a Discussion Forum unless the link is to a Wetpaint page.

Is this a feature that might be added?

Thank you,

Mark

It won't be an active link unless it's an internal link to the same site. We do this to avoid spammers. Do you find this valuable?
