Adding links to your posts with personalized titles

Adding links to your posts with personalized titles

Hi there, this is just a quick post as I was recently asked how to add a link to a post and then have the link show up live (ie the blue text for clicking) with a personalized title instead of 'enter link description'.

This is how you do it:

Firstly have two pages open, your SD page with your posting box and the page that you want to link to.

Go to the page you want to link to and copy the hyperlink, that's the 'http'://.....' bit in your browser if you're unsure. Once that's copied go back to your SD post page.

Now start posting in the your box and type a short title for the link that you want to add to your post.

Eg: Great link for conjugating.

Then select/highlight this title.

While they're highlighted click the world icon with the arrow in the tool bar above your posting box (this is the add link tab) and paste your link info into it.

Hit ok you should be taken back to your post box and your link should now be live (blue and ready to click) but showing 'Great Link for conjugating' instead of 'enter link description'.

I hope that all makes sense and can be followed ok.

All the best with your posting!
