This guide contains step-by-step instructions and best practices for linking content.
Instructions
All telephone numbers and email addresses should be made into actionable links.
Actionable Link Icon:
Create an Actionable Telephone Number Link:
Select the number and click on the link icon in the text editor toolbar.
Type out “tel:” and then the number.
Please note that all phone numbers should be in the format XXX-XXX-XXXX.
Create an Actionable Email Address Link:
Highlight the address and click on the link icon in the text editor toolbar.
Type out “mailto:” and then the email address.
Create a Relative Link:
All links to content hosted on the same site should be made into relative links that do not include the domain.
Select the text to link and click on the link icon in the text editor toolbar.
Copy the URL of the page to be linked to and paste it into the Add Link popup.
Erase the domain and leave only the relative path.
For example:
The full URL of the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention page on the district site: https://district.maricopa.edu/consumer-information/alcohol-drug-abuse-prevention
The relative link: /consumer-information/alcohol-drug-abuse-prevention
Please note that the relative link can only be used when linking to this page from another page on the district site.
