This post will focus on a key task you’ll encounter while working with any website: linking. To make linking as easy as possible, Hot Ink provides a series of Liquid filters that will build links to any Hot Ink page. Hot Ink linking helpers will automatically decide which text to use as the link text unless you’ve provided specific text as an argument.
For more information on using liquid filters read: http://wiki.github.com/tobi/liquid/liquid-for-designers
The following linking helpers are available for use with Hot Ink template data:
link_to_article - Link to an article’s page. Operates on the article
itself, eg {{ article | link_to_article }} or {{ article | link_to_article:”Check out this article” }}
link_to_section - Link to a section page. Operates on a section variable.
link_to_issue - Link to a issue’s page. Operates on an issue variable.
link_to_blog - Link to a blog’s page. Operates on a blog variable.
link_to_entry - Link to a blog entry. Operates on an entry variable.
link_to_page - Link to a static page. Unlike other link helpers, this helper operates on the name of the page in quotation marks, eg {{ “About Us” | link_to_page }}
