HWMF Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Hello, It would be useful to have an option when you create an announcement, that you can insert a link for example, so when someone clicks on the title of the announcement instead that he's redirected to the 'full written announcement' he's taken to the thread you would like.

Joy Rex Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 You cannot put HTML links into announcements in IPS4? You certainly can in 3.4.9... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What @HWMF is asking for is instead of the main link to the announcement, it goes to the topic of choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWMF Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Indeed. Currently I made an announcement to point users out to a thread (and not have Mod that force them to see it but more like if they feel like) however they only can access that link when they are first taken to the full written announcement itself, and then they have to click again on the link to finally see the thread. Maybe it is more easy if you make a small announcement or if you have the option, that you add a link so they are redirected to that link instead. The announcement system is perfect but can be even better with that little option (for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy Rex Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Oh, I see - Yes, I agree that would be useful indeed, especially if it was a togglable option when creating an announcement (Set Announcement to Redirect To URL? YES/NO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Woods Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 If you'd rather not wait for IPS to implement your idea or definitively state that it isn't happening, there is a plugin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optic14 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I would love to see this too, there is a Club I want to link to directly using Announcements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
