MyBB Community Forums

I have two issues. One is that, when I post links in my forum, they are shortened but do point to the right place. I would prefer to have the option to post the entire url though. How can I stop it from abbreviating?

Also, how can I make the text of the forum a dark gray or black color? I mean like the title of forums on the home page, which you cannot edit on the front end (not that I have found at least). Thanks!

1. By default the link appears in full only. You must have applied any modification or using any plugin.

2. To change the text color is in global.css:

a:link {
	color: #A9E969;
	text-decoration: none;
}

a:visited {
	color: #7FC630;
	text-decoration: none;
}

a:hover, a:active {
	color: #000;
	text-decoration: underline;
}

If you want to change the text color of posts then search for and change:

table {
color: #eee;
...

Thank you for the font color information. But I'm confused about the hyperlink. See below--this forum does it too. Thoughts?

Why don't you provide your own site link?

Define what you mean by short links. You're providing no examples and just a vague description of what you're speaking of. Not many people can help you with such little information.
