HOW-TO: Link to a File
To link to a file you'd actually be using Snippets. When you get to a content area where you'd like to include a link to a PDF, movie, audio file or similar do the following:
- Place the cursor where you'd like the link to be created in your content.
- In the bottom right of the content editor click the link for 'Insert/Edit Snippet'
- You should now have an action box that has a few links for including snippets.
- Click the link 'Link to'
- Select the file you want to create with the link by clicking it's title
- Click 'Insert Snippet' in the bottom right of the action box. Important'''
- There should now be text like the following in your content editor: {{ Resource.link_to resource_id=418 }}
- If you would like provide text other then the filename add the following to the snippet: text="What you want the link to say". Which would make the final snippet look like {{ Resource.link_to resource_id=418, text="What you want the link to say" }}
This process will most likely be changed in v0.3.2.
