I have been asked on explaining how to create a diary index with associated links to specific pages or posts. When I sent the information to the member it was suggested I post the information for others to follow... Hope some of you will find it useful...

Creating links to pages to build a diary index

First decide where in your diary you wish to put the index and create the index by simply typing it out not forgetting to including the page numbers or post numbers.

1. Click on any page number.

2. Copy the URL by highlighting, right click and select ‘Copy’. Note, the URL line should end with the page or post number.

6. Finally click on save to save your post. Link should now be created.

7. If you have many pages then simply paste and modify the page number at the end of the URL line rather than going to each line or post and copying.

8. Finally create a link on your Signature box to point to your diary index as shown … job done….

Comments welcome...
