Links & Link Sets

Easily hyperlink to other websites from your site, and provide lists of links for others to use.

Links are pretty basic things but can also be very powerful in connecting people with the right information fast. Spike@School has two ways to add links to the site: A Link, and a Link Set.

A Link is used when you want to link to another site (or area within your site) straight from the index bar. For example, you might want to have a link to your webmail system appear on your indexbar. You'd use a Link for this:

A Link Set allows you to group a bunch of related links together. You can add a Set to any part of your site. For example, teachers could use them to add Links based around a particular subject their class is studying. Let's first add a Link Set:

Add a New Link Set
