In this example, we create a Link that will take someone to the video at the web address <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yk7tx2zgL98> 

Click the add new button.

Click the "Title" field and enter a title, e.g., "What Is World Plone Day?"

Click the "Summary" field, e.g., "A video conversation explaining what is World Plone Day"

Click the "URL" field and enter the web address of the video, <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yk7tx2zgL98>

The details of the Link you created are visible to you, the creator, and to a site manager, but a regular user or the public will be redirected immediately to the link address.

We will show this by logging out of the site.

What Is World Plone Day?

A video conversation explaining what is World Plone Day

The link address is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yk7tx2zgL98

As soon as you are logged out of Plone, your browser reloads the page. Because you are logged out, when your browser attempts to render the Link item and Plone recognizes that you do not have edit permissions on the Link, it redirects you to the web address of the video.

We show how to create a Link object that sends a visitor to an arbitrary web address.
