How to Add a Link

It is fairly simple to add a link within Cascade’s WYSIWYG editor. Follow the steps below to learn how to add a link to your page.


  • In edit mode, highlight the word, image or series of words you would like to turn into a link.
  • Click the Insert/Edit Link button. This button looks like a chain.
  • If you would like to link to a page within philau.edu, select the internal radio link. If you would like to link to a page outside of philau.edu, select the external radio button.
  • I’ll go over the process of linking to an internal page first.

Create an Internal Link

  • To link to an internal philau link, have internal selected, then click on Search.
  • Click Browse.
  • Select the page you would like to use as a link.
  • If the page is outside of the philau site you are currently working on, click on the dropdown in the top-right side of the page and browse to the desired site.
  • Select your desired page from the listing on the left. 
  • Click Confirm.
  • Click Insert.
  • You’ve now created an internal link.

Create an External Link

  • To create an external link, highlight the word, image or series of words you would like to turn into a link.
  • Click the Insert/Edit link button.
  • Select the External radio button.
  • Type or paste in the address of your external link, for this example I am using the address of www.google.com
  • If you are pasting in a link, be sure to delete the HTTP:// before doing so.
  • Click Insert.
