Hyperlinks

If you'd like to insert a link that will take users to another website, follow these steps:

1. Highlight the words you'd like to hyperlink
2. Select the 'Insert/edit link' icon from the editing toolbar
3. Add the URL website address that you'd like to link to in the 'Link' field. There is placeholder text that says 'URL' 
4. Select the 'Target' checkbox so that the link will open in a new window
5. Select the 'Submit' button to add the link

Please note

As a best practice, anytime you are linking to an external website, you should select the link 'Target' checkbox so the link opens in a new window.

If you'd like to add a link to another page on your website, please follow these steps:

1. Highlight the words you'd like to hyperlink
2. Select the 'Insert/edit link' icon from the editing toolbar
3. Enter the name of the page you'd like to link to in the 'Link to page' search field. A list of pages will appear in a dropdown menu.
4. Choose the page you want to link to from the available options.
5. Select the 'Submit' button to complete the process

Please note

As a best practice, when you are linking to an internal page on your website, you should not select the 'Target' checkbox. Instead, you want the page to open in the same window.

If you'd like to link to a PDF document that you've saved in the 'Media' tab, follow these steps:

1. Highlight the words you'd like to hyperlink
2. Select the 'Insert/edit link' icon from the editing toolbar
3. Select the 'Target' checkbox so the document will open in a new window
4. Scroll down to 'Link to media' section and choose the 'Select media' button
5. This will open the 'Media' tab. Find the document you'd like to link to and then choose the 'Select' button 
6. Select the 'Submit' button to complete the process

Please note

As a best practice, anytime you are linking to a document (such as a PDF), you should make sure the link opens in a new window.

Do not link to documents in the 'Custom Message' field of news post pages. The links will be auto-truncated and will not link back to your site. This can work in the case of documents that are not hosted on your website. However, even in this case, this practice should be avoided. Links directly to PDFs will often get your notification emails flagged as spam.

Anchors are bookmarks that allow you to link to specific parts of a page's content.

You can create anchor links to text, components, and accordions. For detailed information on each option visit our article on Anchors.
