Create Blog Snippet

Snippets allow you to create links in your blog posts or pages using replacement text for a quick term. For example, you might often refer to a particular resource on the Internet in your blog posts. Rather than typing the resource’s URL each time you use it, you can create a snippet for the URL and let the Telligent platform automatically replace the text.

The snippet can only be used in the blog post body, not in the title or in a tag.

1. Navigate to the blog.
2. Mouse over Management.
