How do I set up internal links on my web-site?

    I’ve searched the Lessons and the Codex, but can’t find how to put an internal link in a page to a category, so that a user clicks on a ‘click here’ signifier and it takes her/him to the category or blog post. I’ve found the category ID and put it in the bit of javascript shown in the Lesson, but, when I put this script into the page text nothing happens. Am I incorporating it in the wrong place? Is there an easy way of managing links ( I know from my researches that there used to be, but it was removed ). So how can one do this now?

    If I am hearing you correctly, I just highlight (select) the to-be-clicked text in the editor, then click the “link” button there and insert the link to the desired destination after having gone to wherever and copying it from my browser’s address bar.

    Yes! Success! Many thanks ( it may seem obvious to you, but I am very new to all this, so thanks ). Julie

    If you might ever click your editor into “Text” mode, here is an example of what is behind that:

    <a href="https://mysite.com/destination-page/" title="https://mysite.com/destination-page/" target="_blank">Destination Page</a>

    ‘href=”https://mysite.com/destination-page/”&#8216; is the link;
    ‘title=”https://mysite.com/destination-page/”&#8216; is what shows when you hover;
    ‘target=”_blank”‘ makes a new tab open when someone clicks;
    ‘Destination Page’ is what you highlighted to add the link.

    I actually learned about that before ever realizing what you have just discovered was even available!

    Enjoy.
