Now you can post the link to an article and it shows up as a title.
Here's an example:
‘He’s a mess’: Insiders worry Fallon’s partying is getting out of hand (http://nypost.com/2015/11/01/is-jimmy-fallons-partying-getting-out-of-hand/)
Note that this doesn't work as a thread title, just in a post. The reason is because the thread titles are hyperlinks to the thread's page here.
HawkTheSlayer this was cuz you mentioned it. Good feature and an enhancement to the forum.
Thanks :yo2:

so what you are telling me, is if I post the URL in the article the title will auto post in the title box or do I still have to go to the toolbar?

Nothing will auto post in the thread title box. You still have to type or paste your own titles.
This is for citations in the first post, or other posts.

Yes , I see. I tested it.
Articles titles already appear usually the same in the comment box as the typed in article.
I almost always post a URL in all articles. So what happens if I type in a title and the URL has a different title? I guess we'll now have a title and a sub title.:thinking:
hee-hee.
Going post something and check it out.
Thank you!

Ok. Now I get it.
The actual URL is replaced by a downloadable title which functions in the same way as the url. I didn't try it yet Trinnity but this will only function as a "title" if the URL is posted at the beginning or top of the page. I usually copy/paste some are all of the article and then post the link. So will my title be at the bottom of the post(or wherever i choose to insert it) or will it auto advance to the top of the page?
In any matter it's an improvement over looking at a URL and gives the reader a better idea of what they will be viewing.

Anywhere you want to put it in the post:

To Trinn.......hear, hear!
Well, technically I searched and found the appropriate add on to install but it's cool I don't need any recognition at all :(
These folks have no idea how much behind the scenes stuff I end up doing :(
What about the postbit?

No, Cal, they don't have any idea how you help when called on. You're a great asset to the site.
@ADMIN (http://thepoliticsforums.com/member.php?u=1) installed the title/link module. (thanks ever so much, admin)
As for the postbits on the awards, @SrA Cal (http://thepoliticsforums.com/member.php?u=201), (as you know) I've decided to nix the whole thing and thank you SO MUCH for the instructions you sent to fix that. I got part way through it and couldn't find one of the steps, so I punted to admin. I failed, I'm sorry to say. <dangit>
But I salute you Cal. You've always come through for me and I really appreciate it. :yo2: Your tech savvy is amazing.

Well, thanks to your example, I spent 2 hours reading stories about Jimmy Fallon. I get curiouser and curiouser when something interests me. I don't give 2 hoots about Fallon, but I like to read mindless crap. For example, he lives in Gramercy Park, which I now know is gated, very private, and you not only must have a key to enter but must be accompanied by a resident. Also, no dogs allowed.
See what you do!

Blame it on the dog, not me.
Thanks to everyone involved.
This is great!

I have always liked that feature in forums.
NEXT we need to make Rumble videos viewable. Rumble is catching up with Youtube. All Trump rallies are streamed on Rumble. Many favorite conservative commentators are on Rumble. Is it possible to do that?

That’s funny, I haven’t seen a post of his yet?

I think he finally realized he's not welcome here after what he did. He gets banned everywhere he goes.
