Listed amongst the Edit Tools... list is the Web Content Tool. This allows you to place links to web sites on the left menu bar. Ideally, you should place only a few, very important links here, so as not to clutter the menu bar. If you have many links it may be better to put them in the Resources area.

Website Links

Web site links are created in the Edit Tools... section of Site Info. Follow these steps:

  1. Enter the Site Info area by clicking on Site Info in the left menu bar.
  2. Click on the Edit Tools... button.
  3. There is a list of tools available to your site. Scroll down the list to Web Content. Click in the check box next to that option.
  4. Click on Continue at the bottom of the page to move on, or Cancel to return without making changes.
  5. In the next screen, insert the web address for the site you'd like to link to. Be sure to include the http:// prefix.
  6. Change the title of this link from "Web Content" to something short but descriptive, i.e. "Foothill Library." If you'd like to add more sites, choose how many more from the drop-down box. Fill in information for all the sites you'd like to link to, and then click on Continue, Back or Cancel.
  7. When you hit the Continue button, the final screen is a summary of tools added or deleted. Click Finish to accept the changes, Back to return to the editing page, or Cancel to not make any changes.
  8. You will probably have to click on the browser Refresh icon (double-headed arrows) to refresh your screen. After, you'll see the links in the left menu bar.
