What is the Link List Widget?

The Link List Widget allows you to streamline information access and knowledge sharing on pages. This widget is useful for organizing and presenting links to important resources, ensuring users can quickly locate the information they need. Whether it's internal documents, external websites (e.g. Rydoo), or critical company information, the widget provides a centralized source for discovery. This not only enhances user experience but also promotes efficient knowledge management by reducing the time spent searching for information.

FAQs

Can I add a description to each link?

The link list widget doesn't currently support adding descriptions to individual links. The link's title serves as the primary identifier.

Can I add a divider between different groups of links in the widget?

This is not possible within the widget's settings. However, you could consider creating separate link list widgets for different groups of links and arranging them on the page to achieve a similar effect.

What happens if the URL of a link in the widget changes?

If the URL changes, the link may become broken. You will need to edit the link in the widget settings to update the URL.
