How to add link to an external site

Depending on the Renderers you have installed and activated, there are many ways to add links to a post.

For example, with the Autolinks Renderer, just pasting an URL into a post will display it as a link.

That being said, the "always-works" solution to add a link is to use the link button in the WYSIWYG editor:

How to add link to an external site
  1. Select the word you want to transform into a link
  2. Click the Link button in the toolbar
  3. Enter the destination URL in the popup window that appears
    • You may also add a title to the link. It will appear as a tooltip when the users rests the mouse cursor over the link.
    • You may also specify if you want to open the link in the same window or a new one.
  4. Click OK when finished.

You can click the link icon again to edit the link.

You can use the "Break Link" icon to remove a link.
