Adding links to a page
The built in rich text editor makes it very easy to add links to a page.
1.Enter the text for the link first, like:
this is my link
2.Then select the text with the cursor and click the hyperlink button...
3.The hyperlink window will pop up. If it does not make sure you allow popups from the site...
4.enter the url in the URL box.
Links within your site: when you are linking to another page in your site it is strongly recommended that you use root relative links. To do this enter everything after the domain name, with a leading slash:
In this example http://forrestlyman.com/Tutorials-and-Docs will become /Tutorials-and-Docs.
The cms will automatically choose the <other> protocol for you.
Remote links: if you enter the full url (including http://) the cms will choose the <http> protocol for you, and your link will go to the remote site.
Other Options
- Target: this is where you select where the browser will open the link (in a new window, etc)
- Upload: you can use this to upload files and link to them
- Advanced: use this tab to set your style settings, etc. this is usually not necassary.
