A live hyperlink is a clickable link that takes readers to another webpage when they click it. It can appear as the full URL or a cleaner, custom title like "Read the Article Here."


✅ Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Open the Rich Text Editor when composing your message.

  2. Click the Chain link Icon

    • It’s the first icon in the second row of the editor menu bar.

    • Hovering over it should show “Insert Hyperlink.”

  3. Enter or Paste the URL

    • A dialog box will appear.

    • In the URL field, type or paste the full web address (e.g., https://www.example.com).

    • Be sure it begins with https:// for the link to work properly.

  4. (Optional) Add a Title for the Link

    • In the Title field, enter the text you want users to see (e.g., "Click Here for the Report").

    • This makes your message cleaner and easier to read.

  5. Click “OK”

    • Your link will now appear in the message body, either as the URL or the custom title you entered.

    • You can continue editing your message before posting.


🧓 Tips for New Users

  • You can highlight text first (before clicking the chainlink) if you want to turn specific words into the hyperlink.

  • You can always edit or remove the link later by right-clicking it and selecting the relevant option.
