caption: Linking
A key capability of WikiText is the ability to make links to other tiddlers or to external websites.
! Manual Links
Link to a tiddler by title:
```
[[Tiddler Title]]
```
To link to a tiddler and specify the text of the link:
```
[[Displayed Link Title|Tiddler Title]]
```
! ~CamelCase Links
For tiddler titles that match the CamelCase rules, just typing the title without double square brackets will automatically create a link.
You can suppress a link from being recognised by preceding it with `~`. For example:
<<wikitext-example src:"* ~HelloThere is not a link
* ~http://google.com/ is not a link">>
! External Links
To link to an external website, type the full URL of the site:
```
http://tiddlywiki.com/
[[TW5|http://tiddlywiki.com/]]
```
For this syntax to work, the URL has to be recognisable as an URL, including a protocol such as `http://` or `file://`. You can force an external link with the extended syntax:
```
[ext[http://tiddlywiki.com]]
[ext[caption for link|http://tiddlywiki.com]]
[ext[Donate|bitcoin:1aabbdd....?amount=0.001]]
```
! Customising Tiddler Links
See the LinkWidget for details of the underlying widget used to implement tiddler links, including macros that can be used to customise its behaviour.
