The Insert a link toolset enables you to place a link in your content to external and internal content. You can, for example, reference an external website or direct readers to an email address. In addition, you can link to any page or content within your website, for example, to an Events page, or to a particular News item. You can configure additional data for the link, such as display text, query parameters, tooltip, link style, anchor, and more attributes.
Once you insert a link, Sitefinity CMS displays whether the link directs to a URL, email address, page within the site, or certain content item, for example, a document.
When linking to a particular content type, Sitefinity CMS uses dynamic links, so that in case you move the News widget, for example, the link to the news item still redirects to the proper content.
NOTE: You can also set a tooltip for a hyperlink to a website or a hyperlink to an anchor in the text.
In Link style dropdown box, you can select a specific style for displaying the link, provided you have configured any link styles via Basic settings » Backend interface settings. For example, you may set a style to display the link as button. For more information, see Link styles section in Backend interface settings.
Set additional attributes for the link, such as custom attributes. For example, you may want to modify the target="_blank" attribute.
target="_blank"
NOTE: Before inserting the link, you can always go back to the Link to… field and edit the link or choose other content to link to.
