Add internal links

Internal links connect to a webpage that is within the College of Science and Engineering Drupal umbrella website. You can use the "Internal Links" module on Canvas to guide this process. 

The internal links on the Goldy Gopher basic page - before version can be found between the "Goldy Sighting" heading and the Related content. You can tell a link is internal if it begins with https://cse.umn.edu/. All we need to for the internal links is what comes after cse.umn.edu. 

  1. Navigate to the edit page. 
  2. Scroll down to the first bullet point after the "Goldy Sighting" heading, where the https://cse.umn.edu/college/cse-undergraduate-commencement-ceremony link is in parenthesis. 
  3. Highlight and copy /college/cse-undergraduate-commencement-ceremony. Delete the URL and the parenthesis. 
  4. Highlight the words "CSE Commencement."
  5. Click the "Link" button in the toolbar (to the right of the bold, italic and strikethrough icons). 
  6. Paste /college/cse-undergraduate-commencement-ceremony in the URL field. 
  7. Click Save.
  8. Repeat this process with the rest of the internal links in that section.
  9. Click Save at the bottom of the edit page.

  3. Highlight the words "College of Liberal Arts History and Traditions page."
  4. Click the "Link" button in the toolbar (to the right of the bold, italic and strikethrough icons). 
  5. Paste the copied URL into the URL field. 
  6. Click Save. 
  7. Repeat this process with the rest of the links on the page. Don't forget the external link in the related content section!
