To link to current content on the Gateway, navigate via the green links until the item is listed in the box.  Click the button to the left of the name.

If your content is on another regional Gateway site – such as your group site, you will need to enter the name of the group in the search box, and click on Search.

Again, when the item shows, tick the button to the left.

Once you have selected the location to be linked, click on the Insert button.
