• Can I have hyperlinked text in a form. I need a link to refer to the guidelines page (a pdf)before they submit their form. Any help would be appreciated.

  • You should place the link before the forum – not within it. Some users will not be able to access the link if it is inside the form.

    Hi urb.brian (Brian?),

    I’m not sure if this will work, but maybe give it a try ?? (I can’t see any reason that it wouldn’t work – and good idea to insert a link….might get around to doing it myself one day..)

    Change the code to suit your needs, and remove all the spaces I’ve put in between all of the > < (I had to put spaces in, otherwise it won’t display properly for you to copy)

    Normal link, opens same page:
    < a href=”https://www.YOUR-WEBSITE.com&#8221; >YOUR-TEXT-GOES-HERE< /a >

    Normal link, opens in another page:
    < a href=”https://www.YOUR-WEBSITE.com&#8221; target=”_blank” >YOUR-TEXT-GOES-HERE< /a >

    Same link as above, but with Rel=No Follow also added (in case you don’t want it indexed etc):
    < a rel=”nofollow” href=”https://www.YOUR-WEBSITE.com&#8221; target=”_blank” >YOUR-TEXT-GOES-HERE< /a >

    Hope this helps / works for you,
    Cheers, Karen.

    By the way, you’ll need to add that to the actual page that you put the CF7 code in, I don’t think there’s any way of doing it within CF7 itself….I sometimes put a bit of info above my CF7 form for the visitor to read before submitting, so it could go within the text there. ??

    A normal <a link works fine within the form.

    Of course you need to open the link in a new tab or window, e.g. with target=”_blank” but then it works just fine.
