How to Add a Link in Visme?

Published in Visme Linking Features 3 mins read

Adding a link in Visme makes your designs interactive, allowing viewers to navigate to external websites, specific pages within your project, or even download files.

To add a link in Visme, you typically select the element you want to make clickable and then use the "Actions" menu to specify the link destination.

Steps to Add a Hyperlink in Visme

Follow these simple steps to add a link to an object, text, or icon in your Visme project:

  1. Select the element: To start, select the object, shape, text, or icon that you want to use as a “button” for the link. This is the visual element your audience will click on.
  2. Access the Actions Menu: After selecting the element, look for the Actions menu located at the top right corner of the editor. Click on it.
  3. Choose Link Type: Within the Actions menu, you'll find different options. To link to an external website or a specific URL, select the External Link tab. Visme may offer other linking options like linking to another slide or pop-up, but the reference specifically mentions the External Link tab for external destinations.
  4. Enter the Link URL: A field will appear where you need to paste or type the URL you want the element to link to (e.g., https://www.example.com).
  5. Apply and Test: Confirm your link and test it in preview mode to ensure it works correctly.

What Can You Link?

Visme allows you to turn various design elements into clickable links, including:

  • Text Boxes: Make specific words, phrases, or entire paragraphs linkable.
  • Shapes: Use rectangles, circles, or other shapes as interactive buttons.
  • Icons: Turn icons into direct links to social media profiles, websites, or resources.
  • Objects/Images: Make images or other inserted objects clickable.

Here's a quick look at common elements you can link in Visme:

Element Type How to Select Link Type Mentioned in Reference
Text Click and select the text box or highlight text External Link
Shapes Click on the shape External Link
Icons Click on the icon External Link
Other Objects Click on the object/image External Link

Note: While the reference highlights the External Link tab, Visme often provides options to link to other slides, pop-ups, or documents depending on the plan and project type.

Adding links is a great way to increase the interactivity and effectiveness of your Visme presentations, infographics, documents, and web graphics.
