Images with Hyperlinks

    Images with Hyperlinks are possible in wikis. To add a link to an image, you'll need to use a bit of code -- but just a bit! Here's what you need to do:

    (1) Add the image you want to link to a wiki page or external site to the page. Now, edit the page and choose the WIKI MARKUP view. Note that the mark-up editor must be used for this functionality.

    (2) Find the image code for the image you added. Replace the |thumb| tag in the image code with


    (3) For internal links (links to other pages in the wiki you are editing), replace |thumb| with |link=Name of Page|. It's that easy! And it works especially nicely in tables of images.

    (4) Because the thumbnail command is removed, it should go without saying that the image must be cut/cropped/sized to the dimension of the wiki column. The current width of the main wiki column is 468 pixels, but it is recommended that an image that is intended to serve a hyperlink be cut to 460 pixels.


    Here is an example of code used to link an image to an external site:
