Including link to one topic in message of 2nd topic

Hello,
I'm new to SDN so please excuse my basic question.
My problem/question is how to include a link to one topic when posting a new topic or reply to an existing topic.
The reason this came up is that I received e-mail notification when someone updated one of my watched topics but not another. I was going to create a new topic asking why this happens and include links to both topics but I can't figure out how.
The url in my IE address bar doesn't change as I go from topic to topic.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
David

Hi David,
the links are for example accessible at:
1. The top left corner "Topic" if you read a message
2. In the topic lists of the forums.
In general you can click on a link with the right mouse button and choose the Copy option from the context menu.
Pasting this you'll get something like: Including link to one topic in message of 2nd topic
If you want to make the links more readable use this template (remove the '_'s): [_url=href]display[_/url].
Sample: Replacing "href" with the link to the SDN home page and "display" with "goto SDN" this results in:
If you need more infos, <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/index.sdn">goto SDN</a>.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Stefan

  • Creating links to other topics very slow

    Hi, I have RH 7 and when creating links from one topic to
    another it takes a long time for the dialog boxes to appear. I have
    about 10 links per topic and at three minutes per link, that's a
    lot of time. Thanks, Becky

    I'm having the same, or a similar, problem. I'm trying to
    insert lots (more than a thousand) of help jumps into a Word 2007
    document and it's taking a minute or so per topic. I'm running on a
    laptop with an electronic disk. I don't see any CPD files to
    delete. I tried dragging a help topic from my project window to the
    Word document, but that didn't seem to do anything. Something I
    thought would work, but whch didn't, was to create the links as
    Word 2007 links (which is fast), then do a conversion and convert
    links to help jumps. I still haven't figured out why that didn't
    work. If there are any other suggestions, that would be
    appreciated.

  • Link One Topic to Several

    Here’s the situation: We have a couple of topics that
    have a list of holidays and the dates they fall on. Is there some
    way to update these lists from some single topic, so that, instead
    of going to two or more topics holding holiday lists, we might go
    to the one topic and update them all from there?
    For instance, say we have as topics Backup Schedule,
    Production Schedule, Holiday Production Schedule and Regular
    Schedule. It would be a time-consuming task with the potential for
    error to update each of these topics individually. However, if
    there were some Holiday List topic that the schedule topics could
    draw from, we would only have to update the one topic. Is this
    possible?
    Thanks,
    Lon

    "...but if you have a good idea fo the size of the topic you
    want to insert, ..."
    Uh-oh. I think I've confused everyone, and, consequently,
    everyone is confusing me.
    What I'm looking for is some central point (i.e., topic)
    where I can have a list of dates from which I can update holiday
    dates in other topics, along the line of:
    in Date Topic, have <July 4 = Monday>
    then, in Other Topic, a line would read: "Production for
    Monday, July 4"
    BTW, Peter: Went to your website and searched for "inline
    frame" but got no results. Likewise with RH.

  • Can I create a Search within one topic?

    Here is my challenge:
    (1) Building WebHelp for a web-based data application in 8.0.2.208 (I also have one member working on 5.0.1)
    (2) The web-based data application has 1530 data definitions
    (3) The Product Manager would like the ability to perform a search for a data defintion by allowing the user to enter text and then initiating a search specific to the list of data definitions and not including the entire application help (i.e., a search on one topic or a collection of topics)
    Not sure if this is possible. I would like to:
    (1) Have one primary topic with the name of every data definition in the application (again 1530 of them)
    (2) Have an entry field where the user types part of the data definition name and allow them to click a button to initiate the search
    (3) Put the user at the first item that matches their search
    (4) Each item would be a hyperlink to the actual data definition - OR - have all data definitions on one page (YIKES)
    --- OR ---
    (1) Have a collection of topics with data defintions
    (2) Allow the user to enter search criteria and limit the results to the collection of topics related to the data definitions
    Is there an "in topic search control" or a search control that can be limited to one topic or a collection of topics?
    I have looked at setting up a form with a form field/text field and command button but I cannot find any substantive documentation on how this works or what I need to get it to work.
    Any suggestions?  As always, thanks for any input.

    Two last things:
    (1) In the Skins setup, I had to add the "Search.html" in the skin to the "ZoomSearch" button using Links and not Advanced. Having it in Advanced did not open the Search form in my help. When I clicked the ZoomSearch menu bar item, it just flashed and did not open the ZoomSearch search topic.
    (2) I got the search processing to work in my project, but at some point it stops working. The search topic displays when I click ZoomSearch and results are shown but when I click the link to go to the page listed in the results, I get the standard "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page".
    When I look at the link it has:
    file:///C:/Research/SearchProcessing/!SSL!/HPI_Change_Metrics.htm
    It should have:
    file:///C:/Research/SearchProcessing/!SSL!/WebHelp/HPI_Change_Metrics.htm
    All I did was re-compile the WebHelp, re-publish the WebHelp, regenerate the search index and repost the 5 Search related files into my WebHelp folder (in the search_files folder). Any idea why it would not have the "WebHelp" included in the path?
    As always, thanks --

  • How can one ungroup SMS messages on a Z10?

    I have in the past one week upgraded from a BlackBerry Torch 9800 to a BlackBerry Z10. On the Torch, there was an option to either group or ungroup SMS messages from the same sender, however, on the Z10, SMS messages are grouped by default and I am trying to find a way to ungroup them. Can somebody please help?

    Hi, webreality212, and welcome to the Community,
    Unfortunately, Skype Numbers cannot receive incoming SMS messages; these would be routed to your mobile phone number instead.  Here is are links to the FAQ articles with the rest of the details:
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA676/can-i-send-sms-text-messages-to-any-number
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA3591/sending-sms-text-messages-windows-desktop (this article includes links to customized instructions for other platforms and operating systems)
    Copied and pasted from the above article ...
    The person you sent the SMS text message to won’t be able to reply you on Skype. However, you can change your settings to receive the SMS text message replies on your mobile. To do so, select Tools > Options… > IM & SMS > SMS Settings and enter and verify your mobile number.

  • Whenever I click a link in one web site, Firefox blocks the clicked site from opening.

    In the new tab, I get a message from Firefox, much like the Pop-up blocker that says "Firefox has prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." I have to click "Allow" to get the site to load. This has just started happening in the past couple of weeks, and to my knowledge, I have not changed any of my Firefox settings.
    This always happens if I click a link in Gmail, even when I know I am going to a trusted site. It also happens if I click a link from one site to another, including trusted banking sites, Amazon.com, and the like.

  • How to create multiple links in one column

    Hi,
    Could someone please help me with creating 2 different links in one column as below.
    I enclosed is the screen shot of my current application view... I would like to put the link one below the other in one column instead in two different columns.

    With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.

  • "Link to One of  My Pages" not working properly in iWeb '08

    This week I encountered a new problem doing something I've done successfully many times in the past.
    *_Here is the basic info:_*
    I created a site that had a main page and then four subsequent pages (5 in total). I created a text box (seen bellow) that listed each page.
    I then used the "Link to One of My Pages" option to link each word to the corresponding page.
    I then cut and past the text box on each page so that the links would be present on each page.
    Then in iWeb I checked all the links on each page to make certain they navigated properly to the correct page. Everything checked out fine all the links worked properly.
    Next I saved and exported to a folder to check the site before going live.
    *_Now here's my problem_*
    I launched safari and opened the site locally — I then discovered that only the first 2 of 5 links worked — the remaining three did not register as links.
    I launched FireFox same problem. went back to safari emptied the cache, did not help.
    Finally, I went back to iWeb and repeated the process several times. I've rechecked, and recreated the links and exported to a folded multiple times with no change — still only the first 2 of 5 links work.
    Has anyone encountered the same problem? I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or remedies
    Thanks you
    Message was edited by: NYCguy-71

    Well I discovered the the solution to my own post above — For those keeping a score card I'll just chalk this one up to operator error and not to iWeb troubles.
    The basic problem was that only two of five hyperlinks in a text box worked when my site was published.(please refer to my original post above for more details)
    *_here is the fix:_*
    I was working with the layout view hidden.
    When i turned "show layout" on, I discovered that the lower margin and footer were bisecting the text box containing the hyperlinks. (seen bellow) As a result, while visable when published, the top two links worked fine and the bottom three links didn't.
    When I adjusted the lower margin and footer to fit the text box and published the site everything worked properly.
    So I guess the lesson learned is to check the layout — Even though I had content that was outside of the page parameters it was still visible on the published site just not functional.
    I share this in the hope that my time and effort spent figuring this out might help someone else avoid the same frustration.

  • Do we need to merge in order to link from one project to another

    We are working on setting up a new webhelp system using RH 7.
    The application for which we are writing incorporates numerous
    large "modules," each of which we expect to have its own help
    project containing 100-200 topics (page-level, context-sensitive
    help).
    Each help project will reside in its own folder. All of the
    help project folders will, in turn, reside in one main "Online
    Help" folder.
    Is there a way to link from a topic in one project to a topic
    in another project *without* merging the projects? Our aim is to
    re-use information by creating common topics (such as "Using the
    XYZ Product Toolbars" or "Options for Saving Your Data"), storing
    them in *one* project only, and then linking to these common topics
    from other the other projects as needed.
    In HTML help you can do this. But I don't know about WebHelp.
    I was looking at the Snippets feature, but I'm not sure that
    accomplishes what we want. Our main concern is to maintain common
    topics in one place only and not have to worry about multiple
    copies of topics floating around.
    Thanks very much for any assistance with this.

    Snippets reside within a project so the nearest you would get
    is maintaining them in one project, importing them and reimporting
    whenever you make a change.
    To create links to topics in other projects without importing
    I think the only way to do it would be to manually enter the
    relative path as it will be between the two outputs. Will you
    always know that?
    I don't understand why you don't want to go to merged help as
    it looks like your scenario is just crying out for it?

  • PDF output not including links

    I've searched these forums and read posts that the problem with links not working in PDF output should have been fixed in version 6. I'm using RoboHelp HTML 8 (with all suggested patches), but when I create a PDF output it has no links in body text or in the Related Topics list at the end of each topic. I went into the PDF settings dialog box and checked for the PDF to include links, but it's not working.
    I'm developing in Windows XP creating WebHelpPro.
    What must I do to get links to work in a PDF (other than on the Bookmarks tab)?
    Thank you.
    Sylvia

    Hi Sylvia
    Out of curiosity, what do the links point to?
    My thought is perhaps it is a type of link that isn't really capable of being transferred to PDF.
    Cheers... Rick

  • External Links in Related Topics Control

    Hello All
    I have a help system with 100 separate chm projects that we
    distribute together and link between. I'm using the Related Topics
    control, but can only link to topics within the same .chm file. How
    do I link to a topic in a different .chm file using the Related
    Topics control?
    Thanks
    Jodie

    Jodie,
    In the true code editor, in the related topics object, just
    append the name of the external file in front of the topic so that
    it reads "filename.chm::/topicname.htm" The external file then
    needs to be in the same directory as the calling .chm. But you can
    include a relative path if needed.

  • When I use "Email link" in Firefox, the Outlook message default formatting changes (font, font size, paragraph spacing) - how can I stop this from happening?

    In Outlook, my default message format includes the following:
    Font: Arial 10pt font
    Spacing: Before: 0pt, After: 0pt
    When I email a link from Firefox, a new message opens, which has the following formatting:
    If I type anything before the URL, the formatting is:
    Font: Arial 10pt font
    Spacing: Before: 0pt, After: 0pt
    If I type anything after the URL, the formatting is:
    Font: Times New Roman 12pt font
    Spacing: Before: Auto, After: Auto
    This doesn't happen with Internet Explorer - when emailing a link, my default message format is retained.
    Since I email a lot of links for my job, and I prefer to use Firefox, this is a pretty annoying issue!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
