Creating Links

Open the text editor and highlight the chosen word or sentence with the mouse, and then select the link icon in the editor. An "Add a new link" window will appear on the screen. You may also create a link on an image by first clicking on the image. After yellow frames appear, click on the link icon.

Linking to an external website

Enter a link address in the URL field, in the format http://www.address.fi

Linking to a feature or a content page

If you want the link to go directly to an existing feature on your website or a content page, click on the "Select Page" button. The text field is turned into a drop-down menu containing the features selected for the site, as well as all the content pages on your site.

Linking to a file

If you want to create a direct link to a file (e.g., an image, Word, Excel, or PDF file), click on the "Select a File" button. The Moogo file browser will appear on the screen, and you can upload the file you want. Choose the file you want to upload by clicking the green "correct" sign on the file.

Linking an e-mail address

You can link an e-mail address by entering the address in the URL field in the link window. Type in mailto: before the address; for example, mailto:john@doe.com.

To finish, press the OK button and the link will be added to the editor.

By selecting the "Open link in a new window" box, the browser will open a new window or tab for the link, and your site will remain open in the background.

Deleting a link

Next to the link icon is a broken chain icon and the text "Delete Link." Highlight the text or choose the image with the link and click on the "Delete Link" icon.
