Links within Wagn

To make a link to another card in Wagn, just put the link between double brackets. For example, [[Wagn]] gives you this link:

Wagn

You can even link to a card that doesn't exist yet. The link will show up red, and anyone can just click on it to create the card. So [[I don't exist]] results in:

I don't exist

Links to plus cards work the same way. [[Wagn 0.13+blog]] gets:

Wagn 0.13+Blog

If you want the text of the link to be different from the name of the card it's linking to, you use a vertical pipe after the link, followed by the text. So [[Aaron Nelson|IT hero]] shows up as:

IT hero

There is a great deal more power possible with Wagn's internal links. See web address for everything and setting default content with links.

Links outside Wagn (or to another Wagn)

Any web address you enter will automatically become a link:

http://grasscommons.org/

Again, if you want the text of the link to be different, you use double brackets and put a vertical pipe after the link, followed by the text. [[http://www.grasscommons.org|Grass Commons]] results in:

Grass Commons

Escaping links

If you want to use double brackets without creating a link (for example in documentation), put a backslash just before the double brackets. For example, \[[this isn't a link]] appears as:

[[this isn't a link]]
