I'll even be so bold to suggest we should offer the little formatting toolbar that we use on the forum

Good point, I'll forward that. I'd say that using the forum URL code would be the way to go, to keep things consistent across the site?

That would be spot on, cheers Bart]]> stop4stuff 2010-10-19T13:04:28-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=19392&th=3726#msg_19392
That sounds like a great idea to me!

The shop description text accepts links by copy/paste'ing a link from a RTF or HTML formatted source text but I tested the same approach on a product description and it didn't work. :-S

If we could use the same BBcode style formatting all over the site that would be very nice

Awesome, Bart. Having the full formatting bar would definitely help me improve readability for my customers instead of just having a big block of text.

How do you make clickable links in your product descriptions?

And is it possible to check that the links work without having to repeatedly log out and log back in again? If you view your description while logged in it's automatically editable; it'd be nice if you could either have it displayed by default as everyone else will see it, with a button giving you the option to edit it, or have it editable as it is, but with a button to let you preview what everyone else will see.

<EDIT> Ignore me, I'm clearly blind. Somehow I missed the fact that the formatting tools were already there, including a link button. *facepalm*]]> Drawn-Steel Hero 2011-01-21T15:36:01-00:00
