Linking text/button

Buttons and hyperlinked text are a must for any website. They make your site visitors engage with the content and let them visit the linked pages. We suggest you keep the button or hyperlinked text small and crisp.

In this article:

  1. Add a button to a page.
  2. Linking the button.
  3. Other buttons on your website.

Add a button to a page

Pixpa enables you to add a button to any page.

  • Visit the page you wish to add a button to.
  • Click on any pre-existing section to find the blue + icon. 
  • Click on it and select the button snippet from the available options.
    Also See: Add a Snippet to a section.
  • You will now see a button on your page editor.
  • Or you can add a button section from the Basic category.

  • Once a button is added, click on it to view the button menu.

  • The button menu will have three options/icons.
    1. The link icon – Used to link the button to an internal/external page, or contact number, or email.
    2. The duplicate icon – Used to duplicate the button.
    3. The delete icon – Used to delete the button.

Linking the button

Link the button using the link icon specified above. Click on the link icon to view the Edit link/button pop-up where you can manage all the button options.

  1. Specify the URL – Click on the settings (🟐) icon to link the button. Once you have clicked on the settings icon, you would see an Add Link pop-up as shown below. Link Type – Specify the link type first.
    • Website Content – Used to specify a page inside your website.
      Here, you just need to type in your page name and wait for a few seconds. Then the page name would appear in a dropdown. Click on it to link to the internal page.

    • External Link – Used to specify a page outside your website.
      Here, you can directly put in the external page URL. You can enter the link URL along with the section ID to direct website visitors to a particular section of the page.

    • Mail to – Used to specify your email address.
      Here, you can set the default email address, subject, body, CC, and BCC. Once a user clicks on the button (that is linked to an email address this way), these defaults are copied to a new compose email.

    • Phone – Used to specify your contact number.

    • Link – Specify the internal/external link, email, or contact number.
    • Save – Finally, hit the save button.

  1. Open New Window – Check in this option to open the link in a new tab. 
  2. Specify the link/button text – Set the button label from here.
  3. Button Size – Set the button size to be small, medium, or large.
  4. Button Color – Specify the button color from here. If you have chosen to invert the button color, the button text color will be applied to the button background, and vice versa.
  5. Button Alignment – Set the button alignment as left, center, or right.
  6. Button Icon – Set the icon that will appear over the button.
  7. Button Style – You can set the style for the buttons to be solid or outline or a text link.
  8. Save – Hit the save button to save the button specifications. 

Other buttons on your website:
