Hi Paul,

Welcome to the community portal. If you are able to store the jpg image somewhere publicly on the internet, you can post a link in. There is no option to upload an image in a forum post. It would help to see what you mean by Section.

Thanks and regards, Robin

Thanks Robin.Our website is www.faifa.org. On the home page at the lower right corner there is a main section titled Professional Development. Below that is a section/tab titled "Crisis Is Opportunity". I would like to have that title be a link that when clicked would automatically take the user directly to another website where the course is taught. Thanks for your help.

I do not have access to a version that old (3.7.9) to know it was available then, but in newer 4.x versions there is a "link" class that fulfills your requirement.

In the same way a new "Article" is created, create a "Link" instead.

Cheers!

Hi Robin.Version 3.7.9 does have a link function (as well as Article) but it doesn't seem to allow the connectivity once you set it up. Perhaps that function was incorporated into version 4.X.XA separate question for you: is it a simple process of updating to the latest version? In other words, are we at risk of losing any of our current website settings and layouts if we simply download and install the latest version?Thanks so much for all your help!

Hi Paul,

It was Doug who helped you with the link class. About upgrading, I do not have extensive experience with that, so someone else should answer this one. There upgrade descriptions though for every release, I recently upgraded a version to the latest release and did not find it that difficult but that was from 4.x to the latest release, not like you with a 3.x install which will probably ask for a bit more time.

Thanks Robin.Also, thanks Doug for your input as well. I didn't see the different name until Robin mentioned it. I placed a call to the company to confirm everything before we upgrade. Will post back with that answer.Thanks!
