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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
). - 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.
Linking Options Table (Example)
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 |

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.
