Featured lists

As an admin I added a Featured Link to www.measurementmatters.com with the title Measurement Matters. I then added a links module which correctly shows the site I want to link to (the title above). However clicking this link gives me a new page with a 404 page not found error because the link is to http ://www.paulscorner.co.uk/tiki/www.measurementmatters.com which of course does not exist. www.paulscorner.co.uk and www.measurementmatters.com are two independant sites.

What I want to happen is when someone clicks the Measurement Matters link thay are taken to that site as a new window (so my Tiki remains open for them to return to).

What am I doing wrong? (I have 1.9.2).

  • Did you enter the full URL of the external site ("http://www....")?
  • Did you select "open new window" for link type?
  • Did you do a search at tikiwiki.org for the information before posting this help message? (The docs for this feature are at or near the top of the search results.)

Following the docs will produce the results you want.

Yes ~ of course, but I got bogged down in the info and didn't spot the http nugget ~ thanks for your help (and I understand your frustration).
