step-by-step: text links
filed under: content | tutorialAn introduction for those who need it, and a little reminder for those who don’t :)
This is very quick step-by-step on how to edit any text or phrase as useful, easy-to-use and prompting link. Do check out the article on “adding links, the right way.” for more information about linking and phrasing.
- type the text to be linked
ideally, this will be worded in a prompting and encouraging tone.
- copy the URL of the source to be linked
if linking to a webpage: view in browser and copy link from address bar
if linking to a resource: upload file and copy URL
- select ‘add link’ from the editor’s options and paste the URL
this function is either a small button showing a link icon, or can be selected via right-click on selection
- click enter to confirm
the text’s appearance will then be shown in blue with an underline, visually distinguishing itself as an active link
