How to add a web link to your post
Teaching
Tech Tip:
Have you wanted to know how to make your words link to
a website?
Here's what you do:
-
Type the word you want
to link.
-
Highlight whatever word you
would like to turn into a hyperlink.
-
Go up to the little icon
that looks like a chain link in the editing tools above,
and click the link on the left. Here is a picture of
the chain link tools:
The button on the left
creates a link, the one in the middle is what you choose
to break or remove a link, and the last
one prevents a link from being created.
-
Once you have selected
the link button, you will add the URL address into the
correct line.
-
For the "Target,"
you typically select "open in a new window," so that
viewers don't lose their place in their current web
page.
-
For the "Title," you
retype the words you want in the place where the hyperlink
will be connected. (These are the same words you
typed and highlighted to begin with.)
-
You can just ignore
the "class" section.
-
Then, you press "insert" and
you are done!
