Web Manual: WYSIWYG Functions

This page shows the available functions within the wysiwyg which is available across many content types. It operates a bit like a Word document, allowing you to stylize your page without needing to use custom HTML.

Add a Link

This button allows you to add a hyperlink to your text. If you're linking to another page on the same website, you can now use a search function to find your page. This is preferred over copying over the URL, because if you change the URL later, it will still connect to your page.

Tip: Something new on Drupal 10 is that you can now 'copy' a link, highlight the text you want to add the link to, and 'paste.'
