Links

links, also known as Bookmarks, Webpages, or URLs are one of the core components of Linkwarden (hence the name).

Adding a Link

You can add a new Link by clicking the "+ New Link" button on the top-right of the screen.

A couple of things to consider:

• The "Address" field is mandatory.
• The "Collection" field is also mandatory, BUT will be set as "Unorganized" if nothing is provided. If left at this value, a new Collection (named "Unorganized") will be created if it doesn't already exist.
• The "Description" field will be autogenerated based on the webpage title if nothing is provided.
• The "Name" field overwrights the "Description" field while being displayed in the Link card.
