It should appear immediately on any posts you make after updating your profile with a new sig.
On older posts it will take longer, which relates to how the software updates threads. Normally it will update whenever someone posts to the thread, I don't know how it updates other threads (but, eventually even the threads in Limbo/Oblivion, which no one can post to, update).
--------------------
Don't cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time making it.

This is my first post. This post is a test: I want to see how it turns out, and to try a few tasks. If I mess up completely, please politely avert your eyes from the mess. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Testing the quote function:

Testing the function for providing a link:
According to Wikipedia, for what it's worth,...
I think that's right: let's see how it goes.

Welcome, Tobias! You did better with the UBB code than some posters who have been around for years.

I suspect that the quote marks are messing with our software's crude parsing capability. Perhaps try a URL shortener, and use that instead.

Evensong, it looks like there's a space inserted between the = sign and the h in http. Delete that and try again. (That's happened to me too.)
