CLICK HERE for a comprehensive PDF tutorial about the EASIEST way to upload a layout - with clickable links - adding the layout to a challenge post and linking your mojo challenge tracker






NEW OPTION:

Upload your layout like you normally would, but now we have TWO boxes available - a DESCRIPTION box and a CREDIT LINKS box. In the description you can write out your text, or leave it blank. SEE THIS EXAMPLE

179654


Check off the categories you want the layout to go to, then add product links in the bottom box - one link per line ... in other words: paste your first link, hit the enter key, paste your second link, etc.

179655


add tags if you want to add tags, then hit the Save button. The links will automatically link up to the products you used

This is what you will end up with:
Again, SEE THIS EXAMPLE

179658



****

2ND OPTION:

When you upload a layout, click on the LINK button. Enter the URL for the product in the URL box, then enter the name of the product in the Text box:

151892




Then click on the Insert button:

151893


Alternatively, you can type the name of the product:

151895


Highlight your text:

151896


Then click on the link button:

151897


The text you typed will already be in the Text box, just add the URL of the product into the URL box and hit Insert:

151898


You might notice the 3 little hover icons on your link:

151899


151900


Open link - clicking this icon opens the link in a brand new browser window

Edit link - clicking on this icon opens a popup where you can update the link:

151901


Unlink (or Remove link) - does just that. it takes the link completely out of the equation and you just have plain text again

151902

Suddenly I can't link anymore! The box doesn't work for me anymore! I cleared cookies logged in and out! On another browser (Internet Explorer) I can but on Google Chrome I can't! When I use the comment box I have the option to link but not in the upload! Anybody knows the answer?

I still can't use the box for linking when uploading a photo! I also loose my typed credits and have to edit and paste them in again! I used IE for my latest uploads maybe I install Safari as that works fine on my laptop!

I am looking into this... I'm pretty sure it's Chrome, not our site, that's causing the issue since it works in Edge/IE. Let me know if Safari works for you as well.

ok. I've made it a little bit easier to add credit links!!

When you upload a layout there are now TWO boxes - one for description and one for credit links. You can leave the description box BLANK or put in text (SEE THIS EXAMPLE)

179651


Check off the categories you want the layout to go to, then add product links in the bottom box - one link per line ... in other words: paste your first link, hit the enter key, paste your second link, etc.

179652


add tags if you want to add tags, then hit the Save button. The links will automatically link up to the products you used

This is what you will end up with:
Again, SEE THIS EXAMPLE

no more trying to link a link ;) This doesn't work for the DESCRIPTION box, it only works for the CREDIT LINKS box, so just make sure you list the links in that instead of in the description. Of course, you can continue to do what you have been doing if you're more comfortable doing it that way! I'll update the first post for y'all

if you have any questions/issues, please let us know!
