  Is there a simple way of making a link from inside a post to another earlier post – that is, cross-referencing a post with an earlier post

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Get the permalink URL of the post that you want to link to by right clicking on the title of that post in the blog and then selecting “copy location.” In the post or page editor, put the text that you want to use as the link for the other post, click on the link icon in the toolbar of the editor (connected chain links) and then paste the URL of the post into the link URL field. Make any other selections you want in that window such as open in a new page and then click insert. The text you had selected will now be a link to that other post.

  Many thanks for that. In Windows Explorer one selects ‘Copy shortcut’ rather than ‘Copy location’ after right clicking, but it is pretty obvious which choice to take. It must be a commonly asked question but I did search the help resources fairly dilgently before posting the question and couldn’t find an answer. Thanks again.
