How do I create a link in my journal?

To make a link to an external website, simply type the full URL into your journal. The URL will be displayed as an external link icon when you publish your journal. You may want to include text identifying where the link will go before the link:

Alt Press http://www.altpressonline.com/

will display as

Alt Press

To create a link to a specific journal page, copy the

[inlink]news,605[/inlink]

code next to the icon at the bottom of that journal entry and paste it into your journal. You can only see and copy the inlink code when you are logged in. To create a link to an external web address, just type http://www.webaddress.com into your journal where you want the link to be.

To create a link to another user's journal (not just a specific page in their journal), put "e:" before the userName -

e:Paul

- to turn it into a link to e:Paul's journal. This is also a nice way to indicate the person you are talking about is a peep.

If you want an uploaded image to be a link and/or have a tooltip title, simply add the tooltip text and URL to the image code:
