When you start using a new software the very fisrt thing that you should do: forget EVERYTHING about the old software. Do NOT try ever replicating the “familiar” features… or you will be unhappy for a lifetime.
There is nothing like that in WP. We have no idea what that thing did – we never used MT.
Now explain in plain English the end result you want to achieve, and maybe somebody can help you.
Thanks for the reply. I have forgotten everything! 🙂
I would like to have, in the body of my post, an image that says “Source” with text next to it. The text needs to be a link.
The text and link will change by post.
Essentially this is a link that can take people to another site that I may have gotten my information from. Thus a “Source”.
I know this can be done via HTML but I was looking for a short cut!
Well, you will just need to copy & paste the CSS code for the source class in your MT theme to your WP theme’s style sheet. (that’s what it is supposed to be, if I understood you correctly that is.)
Thanks Haochi! That’s what I needed, well almost! It is working but something is not quite right.
See a test post here:

The text should be to the right of the “Source ->” image.
The code I put in my style sheet is:
source {
margin: 0 10px;
padding-left: 63px;
font-size: 8pt;
font-style: normal;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
color: #333;
background: url(/images/source_button.gif) no-repeat 0 0;
}
And I enter the following in the post:
<p class=”source”>100.5 The Zone “Outlaw” Contest Rules</p>
Thanks very much!
Anyone have any suggestions, please?
Thanks!
