I am going to have to stop this for today as it is driving me out of my mind. And I have stuff to do.
May be I am missing I dont know where to find the CODE Select all screen.
If I paste your link address into my signature and preview I get an error code, and the same if I cut and paste the example from the fh instruction page.
You cannot use certain BBCodes: [url].
Thank you for your help. I did it no problem four years ago which shows my brain is going.

Re: Putting a live website link in my signature?
The CODE: SELECT ALL is just a way to show raw text in a posting.
Otherwise the [url] BBCode is activated and you won't see it.
Because it was abused by hackers the [url] BBCode is now barred in Profile Signatures.
Legacy users such as Helen are able to retain their previously entered code, but new entries are not allowed.

Re: Putting a live website link in my signature?
When we were having lots of problems with Spammers, I turned off the use of links in Signatures. Existing ones were retained but new ones restricted. I have turned the option back on.
