Ah, I was wondering what the user info bit was for, I have to remember to remove it when sharing stuff externally as I don’t want people accidentally finding out my username!

Just trying out a link
Anyone know how I can show a picture of an item rather than just a link? @Ian_Chimp? (Sorry but you seem to know everything!) For example I posted this link
in the latest purchases thread but I’ve seen other people’s posts show a picture of the item too

Grabbing product photos is a little different now the website has been changed, but it’s still possible. 
To then make that picture a link you select the image code in your reply window, and then click the 
button. This should autofill the display text as the image, and you put the page address in the top URL box like normal.
Eg. I’d highlight all of this:
Then press in the format bar, and I’d add the web address to the URL box. And that would autofill my formatting to look something like this:

Getting closer. 
I’ve changed to desktop view, Long hold on the image then copy image but it doesn’t give me a link to paste
You actually don’t need to flip to desktop view. I’ve edited the original post to make that clearer.
You’ve got the photo.
Next you need to resize it:
Change the numbers in green to something like 200x265 or 150x200 depending on how big you’d want it.
Then you’d need to grab the product page address from the address bar. Get that and come back and highlight the image code in your reply, and click the icon to bring up the link wizard. It should have automatically filled in the “![image|200x265] yada yada yada” in the bottom box, and you paste in the product page address in the top one. And that will give you this:

Which will display as:

I’ve replied in the Sandbox as it’s the best place to have a practice.
It didn’t look like your quote quite worked out how it was supposed to. It should look a little like this in your reply window:
[quote=“Alyssa646, post:9483, topic:266126”]
I think I’ve done it, thank you

The extra stuff joins it all together and makes it swish:
Feel free to have as many goes as you need in here.
And to do the blue hyperlinks you can use the wizard in your reply editor. You put the web address in the top box, and the text to display in the bottom. That will automatically format it to look something like this in your reply window:
[Welcome Topic](https://lovehoneyforum.com/t/welcome-to-the-lovehoney-forum-please-read-before-getting-started/257623)
But will look like this in your post:

Good shout replying here, I never thought to do so myself
Is it because I deleted that part as I didn’t think it should be there?
Gotcha, I’ll not be moving off the app tonight to have a practice as I’m too tired to use too much of the brain, and believe me when I tell you this, it takes more of my brain to achieve these things than others 
It seems you may have deleted it again.
You definitely need the full:

If you want it to work. Without the code you may as well just copy and paste it.

Very close. You also need the [/quote] at the end to sandwich it.
(the quote within the quote has come out fine though )
These bits in green need to top and tail the text you want to quote:

[/quote]
If you highlight the text you want to quote and tap the quote button (and don’t delete any of it ), you can then add your message underneath or above it (but leave a blank line inbetween)

Bit bored so just seeing what is missing from the sandbox…
Clearly 
should be in a sandbox.
And we need some pretty flowers to decorate the outside…
Thankfully, there are always fun games to play in here!
I may have spent some time on the blog this evening and wanted to play in the sandbox. Apart from old quizzes (which is a pity) all seems to be working well now

The old Reviews of the Month are missing (and wouldn’t link to the old reviews even if they did have a blog page). And quite a few of the Positions of the Week didn’t make it either. My collection topics need a rethink.
Hmm, yes, foolishly didn’t notice that the reviews of the month were missing. I guess while it’s not possible to link to specific reviews they’ve been disabled.
How odd that most positions of the week are there but not all 
. I had a large selection to go through to pick swings and roundabouts for the sandpit
