How to link a single post?

Hey staff members,

How can I link a single post from another user in a post of mine?

I would like to add a quotation in the first post of a thread.

Thank you

Hey staff members

You posted in Site Discussion

How can I link a single post from another user in a post of mine?

You click on the date / time they posted. This should give you a link in your address bar that you can copy and paste. Alternatively, you can right-click on the date / time and click "Copy link address"


EDIT

I think the "Copy Link Address" is specific to Google Chrome. I'm not sure if it has similar wording to FireFox, Edge, etc. A drop down menu should still appear that lets you copy the URL.

Sry, I addressed this question at the staff, because your guys are the ones to know this most probably.

Well, thanks KILLCIDE, after I have read your answer, I did realize, that there is this little number for every post, and by clicking on it, a bb code of that post will popp up.

Thank you, problem solved

Edit:

In Firefox, you have to right click the time and then "copy link adress"

Ahh yes I totally forgot about that number as well xD

If you want to quote, I would select the text and hit Reply then copy the quote from the "quick reply box". If you want to refer, I would right click #5 and hit "Copy link address" as Emm-A- says.

@Ralle thanks for your comment on this. Does "Permalink" mean, that this will be saved as long as the site exists?

I think it's pretty safe yes.
