Could you help me with this ??does clicking on that attachment have to be immediate or can it be done later ??? I mean is there a time limitation ??Are you a writer? Is your thread copy protected, if yes, then right click may not work.I think it is time to update the steps for this scenario.(To know what is copy protected - check the page 2 of this thread)Right click options are the normal web browser options that come for any link on a web page - like copy link location, open in a new tab..etc.if you are on mobile or even laptop user, there is an easier way in below steps ---1) Just click on the pin/attachment/chain/clip like icon, (left click or standard click which you do on any link or button)(the pin/attachment icon is nothing but a link to the post..so same page will open/refresh again when you click on it)2) Check the link that is showing now in the browser address bar (on top of the web page in the address bar of the browser)3) the link in the address bar of the page/browser will be something similar to below sample formathttp://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4013931&PID=147243283&#p147243283(TID is Topic ID, PID is Post ID)4) This is the direct link to the post(This link will remain intact even if page numbers are changed due to post deletions)5) Copy that link from the address bar and Use that to create a link in your post6) How to create custom link is detailed on Page 1 last posts
