Abstract:
A content management system can receive, from a client device, a link including an address to a network resource. The content management system can then store a link file including the link, and provide the link file on a first page of a website. Next, in response to an input received from a browser application at the client device, the content management system can extract the address from the link file and provide a second page on the website displaying the address from the link file and a graphical element configured to receive a request from the browser application to navigate to the address. In response to receiving the request from the browser application, the content management system can then instruct the browser application to navigate to the address.
