Feature request: relative links

We'd like the ability for buttons to have relative links. Currently if we insert "/courses/courseA" as the URL, the final link ends up "https:///courses/courseA", which isn't the same thing. The final link looks for courses as a domain instead of a resource path. We'd be ok with requiring a checkbox to allow relative links.

    Hi folks! Quick feature update for you:

    You can now use relative links in button and button stack blocks to link to content within your subdomain.

    If you embed web content in other block types and would like to use relative URLs to do so, please let us know about your use case by connecting with us here. Allowing relative URLs in hyperlinked text is not something we're working on at this time.

    Hi. We've just discovered relative links are not working, at least we haven't been able to make them work in Rise. Wanted to add my support to this feature being added. Thanks.

    +1! This function would be amazing. Please add this function as it would be very beneficial to my organization!

    Thanks for the idea, Stuart! We'll keep an eye out for more momentum around this concept.

    Hi, yes, relative links would be huge for our organization as well. Do you think this upgrade will be coming soon?

    Hi Patty! We're still tracking requests for this feature, but we'll share updates here if we make changes that will help.

    Please, this has the potential to temporarily improve the lack of in-course multiple language support in Rise360. That too should be a feature on the horizon.

    With relative links, you could at least link to another rise course at the root level as a stop-gap.

    Relative links would be a huge value. We have a need to jump to other sections within Rise - for example, create a menu or roadmap with spots that allow the user to jump directly to the topic elsewhere in Rise.
