Link to another photo in your project

November 2nd, 2013
Can anyone tell me how to add a link to another photo in my project. I thought I could do it by copy and paste but that doesn't work to add the link in my editorial below the pic. Hope you understand what I mean. I have had a look at the discussion boards but can't find anything about it.

That's strange Rosie I tried to do the same thing yesterday. I thought it was helpful as a few people are doing it. In the edit box you can see the cut and paste lines but when you save the shot it has disapeared!!

I select the photo I want to give a link to, copy the info in the internet link above it and paste that into my editorial. (Don't feel I've explained that too well but I've tried!)

@pamknowler Rather than paste the photo, I was trying to post a link to another pic taken in June. Have a look at my 365 photo today where I have written about seeing my pic in an exhibition and I wanted to post a link to it so that people can see which one was seen at the exhibition

@pamknowler Have a look at what Hazel has written. I've followed her instructions and it works!

Just go to the shot you want, then go up to the browser top bar to the link box (top right bar to the left in Internet Explorer and most others), click in the box then clt a to highlight all the text of the complete link and then ctl c to copy it. Go back to your editorial text and ctl v to paste it into the text. That's Windows of course. For Mac it's the flower button instead of ctl. Hope that helps?

That just gets you the http link of course, not the html code that will actually show the picture. You get that code by going to the text that is in the box at the bottom right of the photo screen, copying all that code and then pasting that code to other text. The HTML code will cause the picture to be displayed.

I'm glad you got what I meant - I know what to do but I'm not too technical in my explanations!

You have to copy and paste the code but delete all before http and everything after the number in inverted commas so you only paste a small part of the copy and paste code.
