Thank you @revote for the inSpiration. 

Ooo nice!

An alternative workaround, which I’ve always used, is the following:

• Create a hyperlink in a text box editor (e.g. in a comment box or “create topic” box)
  • e.g. “visit the inSpired Homepage”
• Copy-paste that hyperlink into the message editor at the desired location
• Pro-Tip: Make sure to underline it in the message box so it actually looks like a hyperlink. Otherwise it’ll be hard to spot.

Awesome, thanks for sharing @Alistair FIeld 

Nice @Daniele Cmty, I used the same ‘hack’ back in the days. A hyperlink looks so much better - more attractive to click.

@Jasper, I think this might also be interesting for you and the team  

Yes, we were already using that. After the text editor didn't support BBcode anymore we found we could still do it in pm's 

Ah yes, you’re right @Jasper  do you also remember the parameter to insert images? And does it also still work in PM’s? (if it ever did)

I don't think it still works, at least it didn't when I just tested it.

It used to be possible with https://. We would love images in pm's though 

Yeah, generally speaking, private messages should have (almost) same features than comments.

When I write a new private message or respond to a private message, I do not see a text editor at all. There is no option for me to bold or underline text. Is there something I’m missing? 

Hi @JessicaMendez,

What you can see in the screenshot is the backend private message module. It is mostly useful for sending messages in bulk.

Here’s how to use it:

You can insert markup in private messages using BBCode syntax. So far I’ve used links, bold, underline, etc. and it worked fine.

Before sending messages in bulk with bbcode, I recommend you to try out sending a message to a test account so you see if the format worked well.

@JessicaMendez that is the private message function in Control.

The above is looking at the Private Message in the front end.

 You can test by sending yourself a message. No need for a test account
