How to do a link ?

Monday, March 26th, 2007

It’s really easy and it’s so much more practical then just putting a text . When you write a post or when you update your personal page follow these steps:

1/ Type the text that will be used as a link ( example: my fantastic website ) or more likely the link itself ( example: http://sosobering.free.fr/art ). But if your link is really long, use the first solution.

2/ Highlight your text with your mouse.
3/ Click on this button link button and a pop up window will appears.

link pop up window

The pop up window gives you 3 options: Link URL: that’s where you put your link, target: that’s where you choose if the link is opened in a new window or in the same ( I recommend “same window”new window” so people keep protoplay website opened ) and finally Title: That the description of the link so when people put their mouse on the link a small box appears with this description.

4/ Click Insert and that’s it. Your link should look like this in the preview or on the website http://sosobering.free.fr/art and it should be blue and underline in your text editor.

If you got the link wrong or want to change something, just highlight your link and click on the link button again. The pop up window will appear with all the informations you added earlier. If for any reason you don’t want this link any more, highlight your link and click on the break-link button Break-link. This is also useful if the link is not only on the word you want, just highlight the extra bit and click the break-link button.

If you want to put a link in your comments it’s even simpler, just type your link like this http://sosobering.free.fr/art or copy and paste it from your browser to your comment. That’s it.

Bob is your uncle
