Linking in a Wiki

You can link to any page in the Wiki or to outside URLs.

1.  Let's say the new page you created was titled Famous Histochemists and you want to link to the History page.

2.  Click on the History page over on the right side of the page, in Navigation, and then click on the "edit page" button.

3.  Type the name of your new Page, "Famous Histochemists" and then highlight your text.

4.  Go up to the toolbar and click on the "Link" icon (a globe with chainlinks next to it).

5.  A Link Info page appears. Click on the drop down menu to choose the link type: WikiPage, URL, or Email address

6.  Choose WikiPage   

7.  Next click on the drop down for the "Link to wiki page" and choose what page you are linking to – in

     this case it would be the Famous Histochemists.

8.  Once you choose the page you are linking to, the next Link text box will show the title of the page you are

     linking.

9.  Save your link. When you go back to view the History page, if you click on "Famous Histochemists," it will take you to the Famouse Histochemists page.

Linking to a URL

Same process as Linking to a WikiPage except that instead of choosing WikiPage on the Link Type drop down, you choose URL.

    1-4. See above

    5.    On the Link Info page, choose URL.

    6.    Insert the URL you are linking to in the URL text box

    7.    In the Link text box, type in the website name

    8.    Save your link
