You can create links to both internal pages within aalto.fi and to external websites. Follow these instructions to create functioning links.
Always enter the whole URL address for external links, e.g. https://www.aka.fi/en/, not just aka.fi/en. A trick is to go to the actual page with the browser and then copying the URL straight from there, as shown below.
For internal links at aalto.fi, you can also put the node number, such as /node/14651/. You can see the node number by clicking edit on the page you want to link to; the node number will then appear on the URL address field up top. For internal links, leave out www.aalto.fi, and start the link with the language abbreviation, i.e. /en/services, or /en/node/12345.
Also, make sure to link to the language version that corresponds to the language of your page.
