Link to Documents in Drupal
Documents within a website function much like a page within a website. Each document is given a URL depending on which group the file was uploaded into.
Linking to a new document
- In node's editing view, highlight text you want to hyperlink and click Link icon in toolbar
- In Add Link dialog box, select Open File Browser (the little magnifying glass)
- Open folder labeled Sites and navigate to the files folder for your site. For example: Sites / Advancement / files
- Click the Upload button at top of window
- Click Add file to bring up file explorer
- Locate the file on your computer and click Open
- Once the file is uploaded into File Manager, highlight the filename to select it and choose the Select button at the top of the window. Link will look something like this:
/sites/default/files/sites/advancement/annual-report-2024.pdf
- File Manager will close; highlighted text on page should now be hyperlinked.
