Link up!
Of
course, no web page is complete without HTML links (URLs) – links to
other sites and links to other pages on your Wiki.
So here’s how you
can do it in Zoho Wiki.
Linking to an External Site / Page
This is as easy as eating a pie.
- In Edit mode, select the text that you would like to link and click on the Insert Web link
 button - A window pops up with the URL tab pre-selected and the selected text in the respective fields
- Enter the website or web page URL in the text box of the URL field
- If the text selected by you is fine, leave the text box as it is
- The
selected text is also considered by default as tool tip text (the text
that appears when you hover over a text or an image). If you wish to
change it, enter the new text in the respective fields
- You
can also choose how you would like to open up the link that you have
just inserted – in a new page or in the same frame, etc. Use the
dropdown menu to indicate your choice
- Click OK
Now click on the linked text to see the link open up.
Linking to an Existing Wiki
Zoho Wiki allows you to link text to other wiki pages too.
- In Edit mode, select the text that you would like to link and click on the Insert Web Link
 button. - A window pops up. Click on the Existing Wiki Page tab.

Attachment. Browse to find your file and upload the same. (The
individual file size must not exceed 10 MB while you are allowed a
total disk space of 25 MB.)
Enter file description and click on Upload.
Linking to an Email ID
If
you want people to get in touch with you through mail, you can provide
a mail link. A wiki user who clicks on the link will be taken to a
default mailing window with your mail ID and subject line already
provided.
Here’s how you can do it.

Linking contents within a Page
Linking
text to content on the same page aids in greater usability and makes
your wiki page reader-friendly using anchors. Anchors are like little
tags that can be affixed anywhere on a wiki or web page and acts as an
indicator for the link.
Here’s how:
