If you’re asking for a friend

Have you wondered how some authors are able to get those link boxes at the end of their articles? Yeah, me too. Originally, I thought it was something that happened automatically or that it was only for certain authors.

I confess.

I was making it more difficult than it was. And why it took me three months to find out, I’ll never know. But now that I do, let me share the wealth of knowledge.

  1. Create two internet tabs.
  2. On the first tab, open the article you want to publish.
  3. On the second tab, open the published article you want to link.
  4. On the second tab (the story you want to share) click on the share icon and click “copy link”.
  5. Once you’ve copied the link, return to your current story.
  6. Scroll to the end of your story and paste the link (ctrl+ “v”).
  7. Press “Enter” and wait a few seconds for the box to populate from the link.
  8. If the box doesn’t formulate, try recopying and repasting the link (remember to press Enter).

I’m confident I could have made this easy Google search weeks ago but alas, I had to make it more difficult than it needed to be. I hope this helps.

Good Luck!
