How to change link in this line of code?

(1/1)

ApplianceJunk:
I have this line of code I'm working with and trying to change.
As it's being used now it creates a link that takes you to the register page.

I would like to change it so the link take you to another site.
Let's just say for example I want the link to take you to, http://www.simplemachines.org


--- Quote ---<a href=\'' . $scripturl . '?action=register\'>' . JavaScriptEscape($modSettings['imiyf_txt']) . '</a>
--- End quote ---

Could someone post the code as it should be if the link was to take you to, http://www.simplemachines.org

I have tried a dozen different ways and just keep getting blank pages on my test site.

Thanks,

As everybody knows, I'm no coder, and I'm probably going to look really stupid here by oversimplifying it, but if you just want to change it to a simple link, will plain html not do?


--- Code: ---<a href="http://www.simplemachines.org">whatever text</a>
--- End code ---

ApplianceJunk:
Thanks for the reply, but that don't work for me.

Think I need to keep the this part in it.

--- Code: --- . JavaScriptEscape($modSettings['imiyf_txt']) .

--- End code ---

When I say it don't work for me I mean that when I try and replace the code I posted with what Sabrinova posted the mod stops working for me, but my website still works.

This is the mod I got the code from.
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3107

I did asked in the support thread for that mod too, but after I posted there I thought that maybe I should ask in the coding section for help instead being it's not really a problem with the mod, but a problem I have trying to rework the mod to suite my own personal needs.

Thanks,

ApplianceJunk:
Got it, lol...

Changed this.

--- Code: ---<a href=\'' . $scripturl . '?action=register\'>' . JavaScriptEscape($modSettings['imiyf_txt']) . '</a>
--- End code ---

to this...


--- Code: ---<a href=http://www.simplemachines.org>' . JavaScriptEscape($modSettings['imiyf_txt']) . '</a>
--- End code ---


Let's all have a good laugh now at just how simple that was, lol...
