    Text editor with content

The Insert Link button in the editor makes it easy to add a hyperlink to an image in the gallery. However, it can also be used to create an inline link in text, if you have the URL in advance. Unlike the Widget button, the Insert/Edit link button is not integrated with pages, products, or categories in the store.

To create a link for a telephone number or email, see Adding Custom Variables.

  1. In the storefront, navigate to the page that is to be the target destination for the link and copy the link information.

    You can use either the fully qualified URL or a relative URL that omits the reference to your store domain.

    Full URL - https://mystore.com/women/tops-women/tees-women.html

    Relative URL - ../women/tops-women/tees-women.html

  2. Select the text in the editor space and click Insert/edit link ( Insert/edit link button ) on the editor toolbar.

    Adding a link to formatted text

  3. For URL, enter the relative link that you prepared.

  4. Set Target to None.

    This setting opens the page in the same browser window, rather than opening a new tab.

  5. For Title, enter Shop Tees.

    The Title link attribute is used by some browsers as a tooltip.

  6. To save the link and return to the Page Builder workspace, click OK.

Insert an image

  1. Place the cursor in the text where you want to insert the image.

  2. Click Insert/edit image ( Insert/edit image button ) on the editor toolbar.

  3. For Source, click the search icon to use the media storage for locating and selecting an image.

  4. For Image Description, enter descriptive text for the image.

    This text populates the alt link attribute for the image and is used by some browsers for accessibility.

  5. Enter the width and height Dimensions, in pixels, for rendering the image on the page.

    Keep the Constrain proportions checkbox selected to automatically maintain the aspect ratio for the image.

  6. To insert the image and then return to the Page Builder workspace, click OK.
