When adding hyperlinks in the WeGive platform, it's important to format them correctly to ensure they redirect to the intended destination. If links are not formatted with "https://www." at the beginning, they may not work correctly, potentially causing users to land on the wrong page.
Steps to Add a Correct Link:
-
Identify the Link URL - Make sure you have the complete link to the page you want to link to.
-
Add the Correct Prefix - Ensure the URL starts with "http://www." or "https://www." For example, enter the link as:
- Correct:
https://www.example.com - Incorrect:
example.comorwww.example.com
- Correct:
-
Double-Check the Link - After saving, test the link by clicking on it to confirm it redirects to the correct page.
Note: This applies to all types of links on WeGive, including those in element descriptions, emails, and other custom text fields.
