I am having some difficulty assigning a link in Flex Menu html.  I wish to link to an internal page, but am running into problems, as I do not know what to provide.  I have tried a variety of options and all have failed.  Since I am not a code-wizard, I am not sure where to find the correct page information to insert in the HUD.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Moved this to the Stacks Chat.

The URL to the internal page would be your domain name + page folder name + page file name.

If the page is a sub page to the top level pages then

your domain name + parent page folder name + page folder name + page file name.

This is an Absolute URL

example:

http://www.my_domain.com/contact/index.html 

Hope this helps

I don’t want to complicate things however, you can also use Relative URLs.

For instance, to link from the Home page to page1, you would use a link looking like this:

page1/page1.html (page folder name / page filename)

However, to link from page1 back to the Home page, the pattern looks like this:

../index.html (../ Home page filename, where ../ means ‘exit the folder in which this page is located’)

Keep in mind that, if you modify the default structure created by RW, then the paths would have to be adjusted accordingly…

Cheers,

I purposely didn’t go down that route as sub pages that contain the navbar link might not work with relative URLs.  But if the Stack is only on one page and that special menu is only on that one page then, yes, you could and should simplify to a relative URL.
