Hello,
How would I add a line of text with hyperlink to the bottom of every message posted.
For example:
"Visit mysite.com today."
Thanks.

On the bottom of every post or the bottom of every page? If on the bottom of the post, you would add it in the postbit(_legacy) template. If on the bottom of every page, then in the footer template.

On the bottom of every message.
Where in postbit(_legacy) would I place this and what would the code look like?
Thanks.
<a href ="www.yoursitehere.com">
go to styles manager select the site go to footer and put it there
if thats not what you want I advise you get a mod like 'vb admanagement' or something like that
it posts whatever you want after every message automatically or after how many messages you want it to post after, or just post after the first or post it as the last message
(I dont advise vb admanagement) but ya know what I mean)

That would put it on the page but I want to append to each message at the bottom of the message itself.
I did consider an ad manager but thought that there must be a simpler way since it will be same line of text every time.
Thanks.

That doesn't really say much. Like under their message but above the sig? Under the sig? Maybe an image with the area circled would help.

Lynn,
A good example would be your signature block (above) where you have a solid line and below that some text with a link. Pretty much exactly what I would like to add to the bottom of every posted message.
Thanks again.

OK, this is adding a link right below the message in postbit_legacy - the stuff in red is two breaks and a link:
<!-- message -->
<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">
$ad_location[ad_showthread_firstpost_start]
$post[message]
<br /> <br /><a href ="http://www.mysite.com/">Visit mysite.com today.</a>
</div>
<!-- / message -->
