Until I upgraded to 2.0, I had the capability to post an URL, but make the link say what I wanted. I don't see how to do that or a mod for this. Anyone have this in 2.0?

Thanks

that has never been an option on SMF, sorry, sounds like you have been using a mod such as Pretty URLS:

Yes that is what I mean. I used to get a popup box for the hyperlink and then a 2nd pop up for text. I don't remember it being a mod though. Now when I hit the hyperlink button it just inserts the url code

that would be the WYSIWYG editor (which is buggy in other ways) versus the normal text editor.

Now I remember thank you. Is that a mod or an on/off feature built in?

wysiwyg is an option, global and per user...

set in admin, set in profile or click the toggle view button in the editor per message
