Links/Buttons
When adding content, you'll frequently need to add links and call-to-actions to resources and/or additional information on your site. Using the formatted text editor, you can add links and buttons to text to direct users to specified resources. Links are generally added inline, whereas buttons can be added as standalone call-to-actions to resources.
Adding a Link
Follow the steps below for adding a link to your formatted text:
- Highlight the text you want to link.
- Click the Link icon (or press CTRL/⌘+ K).
- Enter the URL for the page/resource you want to link to in the URL field. If you want to link to page or file that exists on your site, begin to enter the name of the page or file in the URL field, and select it from the drop-down search once it appears.
- (Optional): Add a title for the link. This will appear as a tooltip on when the link is hovered.
- (Optional): If you want to link to open in a new window/tab, expand the Advanced accordion, then select the checkbox next to Open in new window/tab.
- Click the Save button.
