Ecstatic but confused...

[Image]

Not complaining here but... I just logged in and checked my story statistics... a week ago it read a 4.65 with 40 votes and 11,000+ views... Cool (I love that little red "H") But today it read 4.72 Wow! even better but... the vote count was 39. How is that possible?

And the second question is this... In my sig line I've provided the links to my story and a thread I began. What I'd like to do is just give a title instead of the http:::::: //stories/ stuff.

I'm afraid if I attempt it on my own I'll lose them both. I'm technically challenged that way But I'm a pretty good lover Help please!

A deleted user who'd marked your story lower perhaps?

Maybe a multiple vote by someone? I heard that they sometimes reduce the count of multi-votes. Or, they have a new program that automatically deletes those pesky "1" votes when they are obviously not warranted? Just hoping.

Well, if you'll make love to me, I'll tell you how to fix your sig line.
Mine looks like this: Use this format
<a href="http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=189183"> My profile & Stories</a>
Good luck and congrats on the "H". I'll have to go check it out

We'll make it like a "68". Know what that is?

No... but for some reason it's making me laugh

Told to me by a truly dirty old man years ago. Old "Harry" was a character. He had worked as a computer field service tech in NYC in the '50's! Lots of great stories to tell. This was a line he said he used to use there.

"68" = "You blow me and I'll owe you one."

Now back to Frank and Laura...
Looking very good so far!

Hi magic... me again. I tried what you told me to do and it partially worked Yes the sigline shows My stories and Pagan Corner but when I click on the link, Stories comes up as someone named Buce profile! And Pagan corner comes up as the profile of someone named Wulfie.

I used the uid=with the numbers I have. I told you I'm challenged in this area

Thanks for taking your time with me

 

[English Lady]

this is how my hubby told me to do my link in the sig line....


[ url = http://www.english-lady.co.uk ] English Lady's website! cum and play! [ / url ]


Just write everything together without the spaces (I've put those in so you can see the workings and not just the link!) and of course put in what your story link and what you want the link to say and you should be fine

Thanks EL... I'll give it a shot. Seems easy enough

Check this

Here is the forum, I think we have to use square brackets.
But in the profile, mine has the arrows.
Be sure you include them at the right places starting with
<a href "blah blah blah" in qoutes > your label here </a>
This should work. Check each arrow, bracket, or quote mark, and be sure spaces are in the right place.


Try this
<a href="http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=128159"> Image's profile & Stories</a>

Hey Image,

Not sure on the vote count thing.

But as for the sig line, do just what English Lady said.

At the moment, the first link goes to your story instead of your author's page and the second goes to the right thread, but both show both the URL and the text. I suspect you're missing a closing bracket in the statements.

Magicfingers has the right syntax for the link to your author's page:

<a href="http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=128159"> Image's profile & Stories</a>

The red bits are what define the link, and the black text is the label for the link. Just Copy and Paste everything in the quote into your signature and you should have what you want. (the color commands will not C&P into your signature, but they're not needed anyway.)


Change the URL and Text to make the other link to your thread.

Yeah!!! Success! Thank you so much Magic! I got the profile and stories link to work but am having trouble with Pagan Corner... It's a thread that I started

Where did you get the number for my stories and profile.. I don't see it anywhere and it surely doesn't even come close to what's in my options block, that # is 79982.

Pagan Corner is ascribed # 143656 and is obviously the wrong uid

Take a deep breath I know I'm a pain in the ass

Thanks to everyone for your help

Currently, you have http://www.literotica.com/forum/memberpage.php?uid=143656" as the link to pagan corner

You need to use https://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=143656 to show a thread instead of a member page.

C&P this:

<a href="https://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=143656">Pagan Corner</a>

PS: your User ID number for your stories and for the forums is the same, so looking at the link under the profile button on each of your posts give the number to pass to the memberpage.php script to display your member page.

Link Address

I just GO to the place I want an address from, right click on the address, click COPY, then go to wherever I want it and Rt.Click and paste it. That way, I KNOW it's the right address.

For all your help

Thank you everyone! My sig line looks so clean now! Much appreciation to all... I ended up copying and pasting Harold's line

If I can ever do anything for you.... you know where to find me
