Kinda odd question...how do I make a link to a thread like this?

Whenever I want to refer to another thread, for example, if I want to put a link to a project’s build thread in it’s Under Glass post, I always linked it to a word (click on the underlined word and it takes you to the build thread). How would I go about linking it like in the picture below?

Apologies if this seems like a dumb question. I’m honestly not that tech-savvy to know how to link a thread like that ?

Better way. Click the sideways caret looking thing immediately to the right of the "Report post" , and you should get a "Share this post" pop up like so:

Copy (control/command and C key), then paste it into the post you want.

You can go to whichever thread you would like to link and copy the web address shown at the top of your browser. Then just past it into your post and it should convert it automatically.

Thank you very much for helping me figure out something so simple. I really appreciate it.

Hit the + button.

Good hint.

You passed. ?‍? Next up, multi-quoting?

Seriously, I wish that was still an option here.

Hmm, I just go to whatever section of a post I want to quote, then select the text to be quoted. Once I release the mouse button after drag-selecting the text, a little balloon pops up asking if I want to quote. I click on it and there it is: multiquote.
I never used the + button.  I use a PC (not smart phone).
