In the sidebar that appears, select the New Site checkbox. Selecting the Predefined checkbox will let you edit information for links that are already defined in the system.

Enter the following information:

FieldDescription
NameThe name of the site, or your own descriptive title.
SiteThe URL of the web link.
DescriptionA short description (optional).
DependenciesSome web sites won't work properly when used with Site Lock if they pull resources (graphics, page elements, HTML style sheets, etc.) from other sites because Site Lock blocks all sites except the specific URL. You can find more information on this topic here.
Make publicIf permission is enabled for your role, you'll have the option to turn on the Make public toggle which allows other users to view and use your web link.

If you are creating a web link to a common site, it's worth it to check out the list of predefined web links. These web links are templates that are set up with all the necessary dependencies, in case the site pulls content from other sources. For more information on this topic, see the Predefined Web Links article.
