Linking Documents

Skittles Seagull

The WordPress site has a few ways to add links to documents. There are three buttons appearing, for example if you want to use an image. You can use the Upload button, you can pick something from the Media Library or you can Insert from a URL. I have uploaded Skittles Seagull to OneDrive and linked the photo to my WordPress site through the Upload button in the Image block.

To link the PDF document, I first unzipped the Sample Upload Files by right clicking on them. I made a new folder in OneDrive and dragged and dropped each file into the folder. I then changed the sharing permissions to ‘anyone with this link can edit’ and copied the URL of the file I wanted. In WordPress I highlighted the words ‘Linking Document’ and clicked on the link icon (paperclip) and then pasted the copied URL into the box and clicked the add link button.
