Why am I unable to add or remove links to or from the phrases within my article?
Need help!!! I am unable to get this feature. Can someone please help? I would be grateful if this issue is taken care of my HP tech team.
I get my links to work in the text capsule. Write or paste the text in the capsule first, then highlight the word or phrase where you want the link. You will see the link icon in the toolbar become active when the text is highlighted. (The link icon resembles a broken chain link) Click on the icon, and type or paste your link in the box that opens. To remove a link, just clear the info in the box. Easy as pie!
Thank you. It was quite helpful. [Smiles]
You can put links in the text of your hub by using the text capsule, as seen in the image above. Just type the words that you want to become a link and then highlight it. Once you highlight the words, you will see the "insert/edit link" and "unlink" icons become clickable. Those are the ones encircled in the above image. Just click on the icon to the left, the one that says "insert/edit link" then the interface you see in the image above will show up on top of the text capsule.
This is the "insert/edit link" capsule where you can insert a URL or search for a hub to link to your hub. Once you finish inserting a URL, you will see that the text in your text capsule now looks like a link. If you want to remove the link, just click the "unlink" icon.
Alternatively, you can also use the links capsule where you can easily add links either by URL or by search. Once you add a link, you can change the link title and link description. Hope this helps.
Thank you. This is a different way of doing it, which i was unaware about. However it is working great. And with the image of the screen, it became easy for me to go through. Thank you again. [Smiles]
You're welcome nisargmehta. Glad to help.

I understand the rationale for removing amazon capsules. I'm very careful not to include amazon capsules unless they are 100% relevant, and I can provide a personal opinion. I rarely do more than one per hub.HP is not only snipping amazon capsules on hubs for niche sites, but also just to have a...

Has anyone else experienced editors adding a further reading section to the end of their article? I have not had an article edited in quite some time and I'm not sure the best way to go about this. Email them or change/remove the links myself?Three of the four links are exactly what I wrote and are...

I know it's been asked before. I've even asked it before. But is there a better and easier way to bring in links to a link capsule from another hub. It'd make linking series so much easier. I spent about 2 hours yesterday linking an old series that I have together. It included about 20 or so hubs...

I am almost ready to publish a new article, and I want to add two Amazon Capsules. I know how to do it the old way. But I saw on lobobrandon and a few other's hubs a different way. There is just an orange "A" and what looks like a hyperlink, and when clicked, it takes the reader right to...

Attention Hubbers! Check you hubs IMMEDIATELY. I was reviewing one of my hubs and found a link to another hubbers article. Puzzled, I went to edit mode to remove it but it didn't show up. Obviously, the editors placed it there. I have emailed them to remove...

If I add a link at the bottom of a hub and the title has an apostrophe 's', it comes out like this:Poem: A Stay-at-Home Mum's Quiet DayIs this how the readers see such titles? If so, what can I do so that it makes sense, please?
