Turning hyperlinks on or off as you work in iWeb

As you work in iWeb, all hyperlinks that you create can either be active (on) or inactive (off). When a hyperlink is active, clicking it opens its destination. By default, hyperlinks are turned off in iWeb so that they’re easier to edit.

You can turn on hyperlinks if you want to test your links or if you want to use the navigation menu to link to your webpages as you work in iWeb.

To make all hyperlinks active or inactive:

  1. If the Link inspector isn’t open, click the Inspector button in the toolbar at the bottom of the iWeb window (or choose View > Show Inspector), and then click the Link button.

  2. Image of the Hyperlink pane of the Link Inspector.
  3. In the Hyperlink pane, do one of the following:

    • To turn on all hyperlinks, select “Make hyperlinks active.”

    • To turn off all hyperlinks, deselect “Make hyperlinks active.”

All links on a published website are active, whether or not “Make hyperlinks active” is selected in iWeb.
