Flist help

[amalthia]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out what code to use to link to a livejournal community from dreamwidth.

I've gone to this page http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/notes/Help:Contents#LJ_Links however when I tried what they said < ljcomm > (minus the spaces) and nothing happened.

Did the code change at some point? Or am I doing it wrong?

I'd appreciate any help with this.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure *user name=commname site=livejournal.com* should worjk (in angle brackets)

Here goes: cooking

You don't get the nice little community symbol though.

I'll try this out as well. :)

The somewhat-mistitled FAQ How do I make a link to another Dreamwidth account? agrees with sqbr.

If you want to force the LJ community icon rather than the LJ userhead icon, figure out the URL of the community icon (right-click on it, or something, I suppose, and investigate) and substitute it into the raw code that is generated by the < user > tag:

<span style="white-space: nowrap;"><a href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/USERNAME/profile"><img src="http://s.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif" alt="[info - livejournal.com] " style="vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;" /></a><a href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/USERNAME/"><b>USERNAME</b></a></span>

I'll give this a try! Thank you for helping. :)
