What is a Custom URL Page?

Creating links in Surveys
Within administration start by creating a new survey. For additional help on creating surveys navigate to How to Create Surveys.
Once the display name, description, and private name are entered, add a group.
Enter the title of the website, video, or informational page as your group name (1.).
In the following example this will be a safety video. From the add group area select the add question (2.) option.
Within the questions panel users will add the html code and insert the hyperlink information . There are two types of html codes users can choose from:
- <a href=""></a> - This html code will leave HRCenter and navigate to the webpage
- <a href="" target="_blank"></a>- This html code allows users to remain in HRCenter and open the link in a new window
As an example, the safety video will be added using option 1 html code. Place the html code in and add the link information within the quotes"" , the display name is added between the >< icons and describes what the link actually is (workplace safety) vs. seeing it in code format.
Option 1:
