External Links

Sometimes a site will require that links, which point to external pages, to be added to a navigation menu. This can be accomplished by creating an external link asset. An external link asset is treated like any other asset; therefore, it is indexable and can have the appropriate metadata values attached.

To create an external link:

  1. In the Home area, select New -> Default -> External Link.
  2. On the Content tab:
    Enter the full URL of the external page you wish to index.
  3. On the Metadata tab:
    Enter the desired metadata values.
  4. On the System tab:
    Name - Enter a name for the link.
    Parent Folder - This is where your external link will be stored. It should be stored within the folder you plan to index and can later be reordered with the other assets in the folder.
  5. Click Submit to save your new external link.

External links may be edited or deleted by selecting the asset and choosing the appropriate tab.
