How to make a "VKontakte" link to a group with a word in a message or post? Many users of the mentioned social network are looking for the answer to a similar question. Fortunately, to cope with the task is not as difficult as it might seem at first. Even a student can achieve the desired result in a couple of minutes. The main thing is to know how to behave in this or that case. Next, we will try to figure out how to correctly make links from words in VK.
What you need
A link to the "VKontakte" group can be inserted in a word in a private message or in a post on the wall. This is a fairly simple task, but it requires a little preparation.
To cope with the operation, you need:
- have a registered VK profile;
- start writing a post or message;
- learn the "formula" for creating words from links;
- find out group/public/user ID.
HowAs a rule, there is nothing difficult in this. The main thing is to prepare in advance for the process. Some users have problems if they see a Latin short entry instead of a public ID. This is not such a big problem as it seems at first.
Processing formula
How to make a VKontakte link to a group with one word or another? To do this, you will have to use a special formula. She is universal. This means that you can use it not only for groups, but also for publics, as well as user pages. There is nothing difficult or incomprehensible about this.
If you need to add a link to the VKontakte group in the form of a word, you will need to use the following formula:
[clubXXXXX|word], where XXXX is the group ID
This entry is a template. Let's look at an illustrative example a little later to understand how to use such a formula in practice.
Simplified formula
How to make a "VKontakte" link to a group? There is another version of the development of events. More precisely, the second "formula" of the record of the request being processed. It generally repeats the interpretation proposed earlier.
To make a word a link to a group, you can use an entry like this: @clubXXXX (your_phrase), where XXXX is the identification number of the page of the selected public.
Quick entry
But that's not all. I wonder how to make a link to the VKontakte group a word? For some time now, a new one has appeared in VKoption. It greatly simplifies the implementation of the task.
In order to make a word (hyperlink) out of a link to a public or a person, you just need to put the symbol "" ("asterisk") when writing a message. After that, a menu for choosing a friend or public will appear on the screen. If you click on the corresponding line, the second part of the formula will be inserted automatically. It's about a hyperlink. It is enclosed in round brackets. All that remains is to edit the corresponding entry, changing it to the desired phrase.
Recently, this method has been used in practice. It makes life much easier for modern PC users.
Instead of ID - Latin letters
In VK, you can change the digital ID of a public or user page to a unique entry consisting of Latin letters and symbols. So a person is able to stand out and hide his ID. This becomes a problem when creating link words to various pages on VKontakte.
Firstly, a short name can also be used instead of an ID. In this case, there is no need to write Club in front of the identifier. It is enough to indicate in one place or another of the post the corresponding short entry in Latin. Very comfortable.
Secondly, each user is able to find out the identification number of a group, public or user at any time. And already use it in the formulas proposed to attention. But how to do it?
Find out the page ID
How to make a link"VKontakte" for a group? If the user wants to know the ID number of the public and use it, and not the short name of the page, you can do the following:
- Enter the group with which further work is planned.
- Open any public video or photo.
- Examine the address bar.
The first number after video or photo is the page ID. It remains to copy it to the PC clipboard, and then use it at the right time. Nothing difficult or incomprehensible! Everything is extremely simple. The main thing is to know where and what ID to look for.
Instructions for creating link words
How to make a "VKontakte" link to a group? The answer to this question is already approximately clear. Nevertheless, some inexperienced users still experience some difficulties in the process of implementing the task.
Instructions for writing link words in VK looks something like this:
- Start writing a message or post.
- In the right place (where you want to insert a link word) put one of the previously indicated formulas.
- Specify the group ID, as well as the word that will redirect to the public.
- Finish the message/post and then send the resulting email.
In the course of the actions taken, the formula will be processed, after which it will convert the link into a word. While writing a message or editing it, it is not possible to see the "hyperlink".
Examples for users
Active link to the "VKontakte" group can be represented by a word in the message. In order to use this option, you need to follow the instructions above. But what exactly will the message look like at the editing stage? Need to insert a link to the VKontakte group?
Next, we will try to consider illustrative examples. They will help you understand the principle by which the used formula for creating link words is formed and processed.
Suppose we have the following message: "Are you still bored? Don't know what to watch? Check out [clubYYYY|our group] for the latest movies to watch at home!"
Here YYYY is the ID of the public, and "our group" is the link phrase. After sending the message, the entry in square brackets will disappear. Instead, the phrase "our group" appeared. When hovering over it, the user will see a link to the selected group.
Similarly, you can use other interpretations of the studied formula. Let's say: "Hi. I found @clubYYYY (here) cool sneakers and a lot of interesting fashion clothes. Come in, you won't regret it!"
In this case, after sending the message for processing, the inscription "@clubYYYY", as well as round quotes, will disappear. Instead, the word "here" will become a hyperlink. Very comfortable.
The last entry, which we will consider using a visual example, looks like this: "Happy birthday. I give you a certificate for group_name (purchase) of cosmetics."
It's not so hard to guess that after sending the post, the word "purchase" will become a hyperlink, and "group_name" will not appear in the resulting email.
Results
We figured out how to add a link to the "VKontakte" group in a word in your message. After the described steps, the hyperlink should be inserted automatically. If this does not happen, you need to check the correctness of the entry.
Extra quotes or their absence can lead to errors in function processing. And then instead of the link-word, the formula used by the user will appear in the corresponding place of the message.
