Linking Quickstart

In a nutshell...

Pages on memorize.com are organized by links. Here's an example of a link: Wine. This makes it easy to get to other pages that are related to a page you're on. When you create and edit pages, be sure to add links to make it easier for people to find your page and to get to related pages.

Adding links to a page

Just add the page name surrounded by square brackets, such as:

 

[Wine]

 

Adding [Wine] results in a Wine link. See Editing Quickstart for more details.

'Pages linking here' section

At the bottom of pages you'll see a 'Pages linking here' section. In it are shown the pages that link to the page you're looking at. Look at the bottom of this page and you'll see the pages that link to it.

Categories page

The Categories page is meant to link to all other pages on the site (directly or indirectly). For most pages the linking is indirect, meaning for example Categories links to a page which links to that page. Consider the Billiards page. Categories links to Games, which links to Billiards. The links to Billiards and Multiplication can be visualized this way:

 

 

When you create a page that you want others to use, you should create links, so that it is indirectly linked to from Categories. It's only necessary to create links in one direction thanks to the 'Pages linking here' section.

Multiple links to the same page

It is often useful for multiple pages to link to a page. For example it makes sense for both Chemistry and Biology to link to Elements.
