Warning

When inserting links, make sure you navigate to "Insert Link" and select from the options available.

If you, instead, insert a hyperlink directly onto a page, this link may break in the future as the page is updated or moved.

Info

If using:

  1. Replace me with something to note about this how-to entry that falls outside the scope of all other sections; and
  2. Add the tight-bottom class to the next visible/non-collapsed block above this one to narrow the gap between the two blocks.
