Index

Sometimes, you may need to change the default labels for links if they are not particularly informative or attractive, and especially if you are including the links in the middle of your own text.

To change the title of a link,

What you need to type What you will get
[the current release notes|Sample Release Notes] the current release notes

Where:

'the current release notes' is your new label.
'Release Notes' is the name of the page you want to link to.

Example: Changing the title of a news item

What you need to type What you will get
[an article on the subject|/2007/06/25/Sample News] an article on the subject

Where:

'an article on the subject' is how you want to refer to the news item
'/2005/08/26/' is the date the news item was published.
'Sample News'' is the actual title of the news item

Example: Combining inter-space links and labelled links

What you need to type What you will get
[User Guide for a previous version of Confluence|CONF27:Confluence 2.7 User Guide] User Guide for a previous version of Confluence

Where:

'User Guide for a previous version of Confluence' is your label.
'CONF27' is the space key of the space the page you want to link to is located.
'Confluence 2.7 User Guide' is the name of the page in that space.
