Upgrade: Link/Unlink for Rich Text Editor

When added content to a unit website, web addresses and email addresses were automatically turned into links. The "text" of these links was the same as the link itself and could not be changed.

Two new buttons are now available in the Rich Text Editor for your use.

The Link button allows you to select a section of text and attach an internet link to it. The text selected will then act as a link and when clicked follow the internet link. In this way you can control the text that is linked.

When you click the Link button (after selecting text to link to) a popup window will appear. The options for this feature are:


  • Link URL - A web address such as http://www.soarol.com. You need to start the link with "http://" or another internet protocol. To link to an email address use the format mailto:support@soarol.com
  • Target - When a user clicks on the link, you can have them stay in the same window were they started or open a brand new window - keeping the original window on the page with the link.
  • Title - This text will be shown when a user "hovers" over a link to provide additional information

The Unlink button will remove an internet link for text in the Rich Text Editor
