Like many of these cool tricks, we noticed this one first when looking at a business' website to see how they were using it.

In this case, the user was using the description field to provide a link to related product.

When you clicked on the link, takes the user to the other product (step stakes in this case). This same link could also be included in the Message or Promotional area on the home screen.

To add this link, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Determine the link you want to go to, Step Stakes in this example.

The easiest way to do this, is simply to navigate to the place you want the user brought to. Then, copy the URL (web address) in the address bar of your browser. In this example, the URL was : https://cyrious-syd.cyriousonline.com/#/itementry/new/172 .

  1. Edit the product you want to place the link it.
  2. In the order description, enter the text you want to make the link, such as “Don't forget to order the Step Stakes also!”
  3. Click the Link button and choose “Insert Link”

  1. Insert the Link you copied above.

**Expert Tip**: Instead of entering the full URL, start with the slash after cyriousonline.com. This is called a "relative URL" and it will work even if you have different website using the same product or you customize your own URL.
