Text Link

Text Link displays a standalone text destination. It has typography and spacing controls without the filled-button design options of Button.

  1. Click Add, choose Text Link, and place it in the container.
  2. Set Content > Content > Text and Link.
  3. Use Tag only if the link text also needs a heading tag in the document structure.
  4. Set Design > Typography and Spacing.
  5. Save your changes.

This element has no children; use its own controls.

Controls

Responsive varies by breakpoint; Hover has a hover value; Shared applies across both. Linked controls have their own reference. In conditions, = means “is” and ≠ means “is not.”

Troubleshooting

I need the whole card to be clickable

Use Wrapper Link around the card content, and avoid nested links or buttons inside it.

Recheck the Link control, including its selected type and any dynamic binding, then test the saved front end.
