What's Permalink?

[Luv2Dance]

What is the Permalink thing? What does that function do and what is it all about?

[Babaloo]

it links to your post and your post only
or that post and that post only
click the post number

that way you can link to an individual post and not the whole thread or whole page of the thread

get it?
i'm sometimes clear as mud

How do you find the particular quote/link as far as a search? Wouldn't it be the same as a quote? You do a search and then find the particular quote that is applicable and then link?

it's not the same as a quote
it's the actual post including any quotes
i don't understand the question about searching
hahahha...i don't understand the question about searching
but you have me confused
forget searching...it's just a way to link to a particular post

Well, okay then. My question is what is the benefit of doing a permalink other than not having a whole thread attached and what instance would you use it? I'm confused.

Really? I had no idea you could click on the number. Huh.

Thanks Jacko. I am still trying to figure out when I would use it though.
