This page tells you how to add a link to your Confluence page. A link, or hyperlink, is a word or phrase which, when clicked, will direct the user to another web page or other location.
|
You can click the 'Insert Link' icon in either Wiki Markup mode or the Rich Text editor. The functionality described below is basically the same for both editing modes. |
To create a new link,
- Click the 'Insert Link' icon '
' in the tool bar. The 'Link Properties' screen will appear.
- In the 'Link' text box, enter the URL (location) of the link.
Use the tabs to help you find the URL:
- Search – Search the spaces in your Confluence site for a particular term or phrase, then select your link location from the search results.
- History – Select your link location from recently-visited pages.
- Recently Modified – Select your link location from pages recently modified by yourself or other Confluence users.
- External Link – Enter the URL of an external location.
- Attachments – Select one of the attachments to the current page. You can also browse for a file and attach it to the page, then select it to create the link.
- If you want your link to display specific words on the page, rather than the actual URL, enter the desired text in the 'Alias' text box.
- If you want your link to display a short popup help tip, enter the desired text in the 'Tooltip' text box.
- Click the 'OK' button to add the link.
