How to add a link to your wiki page into your Librivox forum signature

Make a note of the url of your wiki page (or highlight the address when you have the page open, and copy it into the Clipboard).

Then, from within Librivox, open your Profile from the link at the top of one of the forum pages and enter your current password, so the system will allow you to edit your details. Make sure you check the boxes at the bottom of the profile page headed "Always allow BCCode" and "Always attach my signature". Enter your link into the Signature box in the following format (without any quote marks):

First type [url= followed immediately by the URL itself, tight up against the equals sign, with no space between them, and ending with a / and a closing square bracket, followed by a space, e.g. /] then type the link phrase that you want to be displayed, e.g. Arthur's Wiki Page and end with [/url].

Like this: [url=http://librivox.org/wiki/moin.cgi/ArthurWombat/] Arthur's Wiki Page[/url]

(You might want to have the link underlined. In this case, enclose that link phrase with the underline markers [u] and [/u]. So you would have, for example, [u]Arthur's Wiki Page[/u])

Click the Submit button to save the changes.

Now, the next time you put a note onto the forum, check (tick) the "Attach signature" box. From now on, your signature line will include, in this case, a link labelled "Arthur's Wiki Page". You can also link to your personal catalogue page, or even your own website / blog.
