Copy the address of your IC thread. Then paste it in your OOC.

OR

Copy the address of your IC thread. Then click the Globe with a chain icon in your OOC post. paste your address and type in IC or something.

The purpose of the OOC is to keep the IC thread clean of anything not IC... that's why it's called OOC... you know, Out Of Character... for anything you have to say that's not In Character.

Oh, so you want an IC thread, OOC chatter thread, AND a seperate profile thread?! You know, if you're worried about not being able to find bios lost within the OOC thread, you can always update the very first OOC post with a list of links to each charater bio posted within the thread so you won't have to search it yourself.

Kinda like what I did with mine *points down at link to Haunted Houses roleplay*

Umm...hi. This seems to have kinda been cleared up but i'll still give my input. Zorta is right...Damn! Too many people have been right about things today. I curse you all. Well back to the main thing, she's basically right but if your RP is unpopular or not like some of the RPs i'm in with tons of random stuff (Over 70 pages in the OOC) then you should be alright. I usually know appoximately where some character bios are and manage to find them. An IC and OOC are good enough and if you really want to you can put links or even an entire bio in the first post.

Her last question wasn't answered I believe. Yes you can Copy and paste the OOC Link, and paste it (While clicking on the globe with a link in it) in the IC.

I don't think she was meaning to create a third thread for a bio...just how to post her OOC link in her IC Thread. I hoped this helped.

The OOC is for anything that you do not want in your IC.



IC:

Storytelling/role-playing.

OOC: Entry requests, character sheets(/bios), absense notificatios, IC lore, IC discussion, reference, and other things that are needed to understand and play in the IC.


To put a link in your post, simply go to the top of your browser and copy(ctrl+C, or ctrl+X to cut the text) the address(the entire string of text) in the bar. Next go to the message box and right click, in the context menu click 'paste' (or you can simply hit ctrl+V).
The address string should appear in the message box.

Now, using Vbcode, you can change the way the link appears in the post.

Linking to the Suggestions/Problems forum would normally look like this:


http://roleplayerguild.com/f2/


Say you want to change the text in the link to say, instead of the address, 'Suggestions/problems'. You could simply use the following code to change the text.



[url="http://roleplayerguild.com/f2/"]Suggestions/Problems[/url]


Input the address after the equals sign in the code and then between the start and ending of the code input the desired text.

This is the start of the code --->[url="enter the address here"] enter the desired text here [/url]<----End of code.



It should come out like this.


Suggestions/Problems


I also don't think it's frowned upon to put a link to the IC in the OOC and an IC link in the OOC thread.

If you'd like me to further elaborate on this, simply pm me.

Also remember that the 'preview' and 'edit' buttons are your friends.


Your biggest fan.
