Hi experts,

I have set a hyperlink in markdown field from kibana GUI. Like below:

> # test
> 
> please check result2 \*\*[baidu]([http://www.baidu.com](http://www.baidu.com))\*\*

And the layout shows as below:  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/8/e/8e580fc9d80b6c78ea82280d2c0b023b8be6503c.png)

But the link of jumped result is:

> [http://10.70.100.25:5601/app/http://www.baidu.com](http://10.70.100.25:5601/app/http://www.baidu.com)

So how to delete additional info at the beginning from above link address?

Thanks.

Interesting, it works fine for me. Which kibana version do you use? Also, are you referring to the Dashboard markdown right?

1. For the link address use the path of the page in the site regardless of the location of the file in the repository.
2. Do not use the . md suffix.
3. Don't forget to start the path with a forward slash: / .

Regards,
