Link Library

2021, Oct 01

This page shows how to add common links in markdown to the link library, which is a collection of commonly used urls to resources that allows you to add links in articles without retyping the same link over and over with a complete url. In addition these commonly used links can be updated in one file and not have to make changes to other posts.

Add links to the _includes/LinkLibrary.md in the following format.

 [Name]:<url link here>
 [GitHub]: https://github.com
 [Jekyll]: http://jekyllrb.com/
 [Lumunix]: https://lumunix.github.io

Then add the LinkLibrary liquid include to your post page.

{% include LinkLibrary.md %}

You can reference a LinkLibrary entry using the following syntax.

//LinkLibrary
[Link to Github][Github]

//Syntax
[Enter Label Text Here][LinkLibrary Key Entry]

Traditional Link:

Link To Github

LinkLibrary:
