Whiteboard Hyperlink
complete
Owen Keeper
The option to add hyperlinks to text has been removed in the latest updates of the Whiteboard.
Can this feature be added back into whiteboard as it is a critical item in our opinion.
Thank you.

Hey all!
Two comments here.
- Out now is the ability to have your objects (like a shape or sticky note), have a URL attached to it.
- I know there's also folks who want to be able to hyperlink specific text in the objects. This is coming soon but not yet done.
We're getting closer but I hope this helps solve part of the problem for you!

Zach Oh, really? Did not see that and your support didn't know about either. On my side the "Link to" menu item is visible, the icon is not:
Simon Schilling
Zach and by the way, I am only using hyperlink because there is no native link to a list available! Generally, links/relations to lists are totally underrepresented in clickup.
Zach
Simon Schilling: We'll improve links to lists in the future but for now the change made here was to add the "link to" option to the right-click context menu. I hope this helps a little in the interim!

What's going on with this? Pretty ridiculous to have had this functionality just completely evaporate.

External linking would be great, but Zach can you also try to make it so we can link to different elements in the same Whiteboard (without jumping between tabs)? Like maybe just a quick check of the link to see if it matches the source url? Or maybe have "Add Link to URL" or "Add Link to Item". This would be soooo helpful for a complicated whiteboard. Trying to get my whole team on ClickUp, and this feature would be clutch!!
Zach
Sam Sarsten: Won't be getting that added to this feature but it's a great idea! Can you create a new request for it?

Hey, all. Agreed. I just started using/testing ClickUp today and was about to abandon the product over this exact lack of functionality. Fortunately, I dug a little deeper and found this thread.
Zach
Okay, I think we can get this version out in about a week! Going through testing right now.

Zach Has this been deployed? Desperate for this as we used it quite extensively in the old version on whiteboards!
Zach
Claudette Godfrey: Next week!

Hi everyone!
Although this is a small detail, I could really use some help here.
I'm trying to think of a good description for this that most people will understand and here's what I'm going between in my head:
- Edit hyperlink
- Add URL to object
- Add hyperlink
Anything stick out to you as best?
And yes, with this update you'll be able to have hyperlinks on stickies, text and shapes. And then in the near future we'll also have the option in text within those objects like before!

Nick Hemmert

Makes sense

Zach how about just „add link”? Seems simplest
Helen Gamage
Zach add URL would be fine

Zach Thank you, Zach, for the updates. I just wanted to let you know how I’m planning to use the hyperlink feature in the whiteboard. My idea is to create a block for each project name, and when you click on a block, it redirects you to a list of all tasks related to that project. This way, I can visualize all my projects in the pipeline. Plus, when presenting to the board, it provides quick access to tasks and improves transparency.

Zach nice. 'Add/edit hyperlink' is clear and covers both IMO or just 'Edit hyperlink' if going for a single function.

Stephen Schoppe
Zach 'Add/edit hyperlink' or 'Add/edit Link'

Zach any updated on when we will get our hands on this feature
Zach
Marc Rouhana: Next week
Tim
Zach Thanks for working to bring this back. Minimally, if we can have the ability to hyperlink both shapes/objects as well as portions of text inside shapes/objects. And with both an icon plus the command+k shortcut that would be helpful.
Zach
Aiming to get something you can test sometime in February. Thank you for your patience!

Zach woo!
Ben Shorrock
Zach to add this, would be great to have bold, numeric/bullets etc for text styling. Also for flow diagrams, the arrows are a little limiting, would be great if they could move horizontally and vertically! :)

Hey Zach ! How's that February update going? 🙂
