LD update: new comment/post formatting options
News
Hi all!
Just wanted to give you all a heads up about a new feature we've just added to LD - if you highlight text when you're writing a comment or post you should now get a little formatting window pop up.
This should let you easily make text bold, italic, underlined or - if you're feeling fancy - you can add in bullet point lists too.
All of this was possible before but required witchcraft and wizardry with keyboard shortcuts. Hopefully having this more straightforward method makes it a little more accessible 
But the new formatting toolbar was all a precursor to being able to add in the text link option. You can now highlight some text - - and choose the link/paperclip icon. Enter a URL then that text will become a link. Magic!
Would be great to have your feedback and to know if it's behaving oddly for anyone. I'll do my best to get it fixed 
Oh yay.. That's awesome. Well done Kelsey! Will give it a go when I'm on the laptop.
Think it . This should have been the word "works" but seems it is just showing the video. Typed a word, highlighted it, chose paper clip and added link. Anything i am doing wrong ? Looks right before i hit save but then it shows the video.
Haha slightly ironic that it didn't work! I think it's getting confused between auto youtubing and adding a link as text - I'll get it fixed tomorrow
is this working ( <= highlighted - but no pop-up)? im on the laptop now and no formatting pop up is appearing
