Add a site to my sig?

Hi. Looking for how to add a link to my photography website to my signature. I see it done but I'll be darned if I can do it. Tried just pasting, but no go. And there's no link button in the signature box? I'm missing something, for sure.

choose "user cp" from task bar (far left) or click on "private messages" upper right under user name. along the left hand side under settings and options, youll see a tab to "edit signature".

Yes, went there. But it isn't apparent how to add a website link to it. It won't take s paste and there isn't a link button while editing the signature.

Has to be a way...

put the link together in a regular reply then copy and paste into sig option? I'd try it but I hate trying stuff with my phone. Sorry if it doesn't work. Never messed with links in my sig.

Thought maybe you could write HTML but nope . . . .

IF you look under "User CP", there is a section where you can Edit Details. I noticed a place to add a URL. Have you tried adding it there?

Edit:

Never mind, that just seems to add it to a drop down menu under your name.

I think what shenrie has posted should work. Another thing to try with this method is to click the "Switch Editor Mode" button before copying and before pasting. The "Switch Editor Mode" button is in the upper right corner of the editor. I am assuming this being done on a computer not a phone.

I've been using my IPad for everything on this site (full site), but don't see a "switch editor" button there. I'll try these suggestions when I get to my laptop. Thanks, I'll let you know what I find...

I don't believe the overlords allow links in signatures... No the 'Allow Link BB Code: No"
