External links

An external link is a standard web link targeting for example a website. For example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_China_Sea is an external link to a Wikipedia page.

To create a link without a custom text:

• Press in the Formatting toolbar:
  • A popup will appear, type or paste the URL in the box.
  • Press Enter or the check mark icon to confirm.
• Alternatively, press Ctrl+K to trigger the aforementioned popup.
• A simpler way is to paste the raw link and press space to turn it automatically into a link.

To create a link with a custom text:

• First, type and select the text which will be turned into a link.
• Follow the previous steps to open the link interface (via the formatting toolbar, or Ctrl+K).
• Alternatively, simply paste (Ctrl+V) over the selected text to turn it into a link.

Once a link is inserted:

• The text inside the link can be changed if needed but the link itself will remain.
• To modify the link, click on the link to display the popup and press the Edit link button.
• To remove a link, click on it and press the Unlink button.

You can follow external link by either double clicking (will open new tab/window) it or right clicking on them and choosing "Open in new tab".
