- Scroll down to the vertical tabs and click Related Content
- In the Related Content Label field, enter a heading that you wish to display at the top of your list of related content links
- Add the Related Content link(s)
- In the field provided under the RELATED CONTENT section, start typing the title of the page you intend to link to and you will see that a list of titles starts to auto-complete
- Select the appropriate title
- To add another link, click Add another item and a new empty field will appear
- Change the order of any link by clicking on the crosshair icon next to the field – which highlights it – then drag and drop the field to a new position where it will appear with an asterisk beside it
- Click Save at the bottom of the page to save any updates
- Publish the page in order for your Related Content links to display.
- Test your link(s) to make sure that you have linked to the correct content since the auto-completed titles may sometimes be similar for different content types (e.g., a Basic Page or Article could share the same title).
