Employee Service Centre - Child Topic Quick Links

Hello,

 

Would it be possible where we have child topics as below, to create one that when clicked opens a new tab as a URL to an external site? We would like to add a link to our Intranet here.

Hi @MichaelCreatura ,

Please follow the steps i have mentioned in my answer:

If you are looking for the exact concept of the Quick links ,then this is how it works:

Associate a quick link to a topic:

Finally what you will see:

  1. On the Employee Center home page, click a root topic.
    If the root topic has quick links associated with it, and if you have access to the quick links, then those quick links are displayed for that root topic on the mega menu.
    Note: The external link icon (
     
    ) next to a quick link indicates that it is an external link.
  2. Click any quick link that you want to view.
    Depending on the content type associated with the quick link, the relevant content is displayed.

Hello @MichaelCreatura ,

 

Yes, that's possible. Create the child topic and on the connected content related item, create a Quick link pointing to an external link. Since the Quick link field is a reference, you must create the link to your external link in the Quick links table.

Hello,

I have done these steps but now the quick link is opening both in the current tab and in a new tab. 

 

How do I change this to just open in a new tab?

 

Thanks,
