Creating links in your post

1. You are typing a lovely post, title & text. (See my blog for some excellent examples, absolutely shameless I know.)  :)

2. Select the text that you want to turn into a link.

3. Click on the “link” icon as shown.

4. Link URL: This is the only thing that I ever complete. This is the full text hyperlink thingie: starting with “http://”.

Target: You can use this if you would like the link to open in a new window, new tab, or in the current browser.

Title: This is the text that will appear when the link is hovered over. Ie: “link to Cathy’s site”.

Class: I believe this is referring to a css class. Perhaps if you are attaching a link to an image this would come into play. Like I said, only the top blank- Link URL – is necessary.

5. Once you click on the “insert” button, your new linked text should be a different color, and most likely underlined.

6. To break the text, click the broken link. To change the link, click the “link icon” again and complete the details with the new link.
