  • Select "Redirect to URL".

  • Copy the url into the text box.

  • Best Practice is to have the new page open in another tab. Click "Show More Options" and then enable "Open in new tab", if desired.

    If you need to link to a pdf document, click the "Show More Options", then select "File". The File Manager tab will show. Choose a file that has been already uploaded or Upload a file to use. 

  • Click "Save changes". 

  • Now, test your login in link in the public website to make sure it works by exiting edit mode and testing the link or testing the button link in a different browser.  

    Note: You can also link an image, by highlighting the image and clicking on it. Then select "This is a link" and follow the prompts. Enter in the destination "url", select "Show More Options" and choose "Open in a new tab", if desired. Then click "Save changes". 

Simulating a Button

There are also options in the "Link Setting" options that allow you to change the look of your linked text. Experiment with the settings under "Link Styles":
