Y’all. I love you most ardently. You must let me confess my love for you all.

That being said, would it kill AO3 authors to learn how to do the HTML to make a link clickable?

@hiddenlacuna suggested I teach everyone.

It’s not hard, swear down.

<a href=“https://archiveofourown.org”>Archive of Our Own</a>

Becomes Archive of Our Own (though I cheated and used the mobile tool to link it because Tumblr)

You can even get fancy and tell it to open in another window by adding target=“_blank” after the link in the HTML tag so that it will open in a new window/tab based on the user’s configuration.

<a href=“https://archiveofourown.org” target=“_blank”>Archive of Our Own</a>

If it’s in the body of the work itself, you can set it to rich text and add it the same way you do here—highliting the text that’s going to be the link, clicking the little “link” icon, and copy/pasting the url into the given space.

Reblog for this handy infos since I tend to code it all by hand or run it through the Google docs thingmabob that puts all the HTML in. (I uh, have issues with the rich text editor in that I always make a mess if things with it 😂)
