Question

How do I make a URL (or text) a clickable link, so that when selected patients are redirected to another page?

Solution

You can add HTML formatting to a URL or text so that it becomes a link, by using the instructions below.

Some of the areas you may wish to add a link to could be:

• Practice profile information (your bookings page)
• Practitioner profile(s)
• Terms and conditions or appointment information
• Pre and/or post-appointment information emails (vaccine feature)

1. In your Dashboard, go to Vaccinations > COVID-19 > Select the vaccine brand & appointment type (eg Dose 1 or Dose 2) > then Edit next the pre and post appointment information: 
   
   
   
   
2. Write your text, then copy and paste the following HTML link format and complete the following:
   

   It is important to copy the HTML format to the exact so this works as expected.

   1. Copy and paste the following by highlighting this text in red:
      <a href="https://www.example.com" target="_blank">Display Text Here</a>
      
      
   2. Replace https://www.example.com with the URL weblink (In this example, we will use https://www.hotdoc.com.au)
      
      
   3. Replace Display Text Here with the text you would like to be clickable (In this example, we will use Click Here)
      
      
   4. Click Save:
      
      
      
      
3. When the patient receives their pre appointment information, they will be able to click the link and be redirected to the page you included in the format:
   
   
   
   
4. Repeat this for any other pre/post appointment type information, or for any other areas!
