How to modify outgoing links?

  • Hi

    I want to select a text and insert a URL link so that a reader can click on that text, and it opens a new window to take him to that link.

    When I am trying to do that currently, by default it always inserts my webpage name and then the link.

    For example, if I want to select the word “Facebook” and then I select it, and insert a URL link “www.facebook.com”
    Now if a user reads my blog, and come across this word “Facebook” he should be able to click it and be redirected to https://www.facebook.com

    But that is not the case. Instead currently the way link appears is :
    “thewisdompearls.com/www.facebook.com” which is incorrect and it lands on an error page.

    How can I modify these outgoing links?

    THanks

  • Try something like this:

    <div><a title="Facebook" href="https://www.facebook.com/" target="_blank">Facebook</a></div>

    Copy and paste it in your html editor, publish/ update it and see if it works.

    For example, if I want to select the word “Facebook” and then I select it, and insert a URL link “www.facebook.com”

    Or just type the complete URL which has https:// in front of it…

    Don’t put www.facebook.com in the dialog box, put https://www.facebook.com/ and include the https://.
