Buttons in the Duda System: Linking

2 August 2022

Buttons play an integral role on a website, guiding user action. Buttons are crucial in ensuring that users have ample opportunity to convert on every page. For example, a button could encourage a visitor to submit a contact form or call a business.


In this content, we outline two primary button linking options: basic hyperlinks and pop-up activation. In Part 2, we’ll discuss how to style buttons to match your website.


Let’s get started!

Adding a Click-to-Call Button

1. Right click on the row you would like to add your button to. Select “New Column.”


2. Right click on your empty column, hover over “Add,” then over “Widget below,” and then select “Button.” Alternatively, navigate to “Widgets” on the leftmost Duda menu and click and drag a “Button” widget to the empty column. On Duda, button styles are set globally, so your new button will already be properly formulated.

3. Click on the new button to access the “Button Content” editor. Here, you can adjust button text. Enter your preferred business phone number.


4. Whenever a button is added to a website, Duda will automatically link the button to an existing page from your standard pages menu. Scroll down on your “Button Content” editor to find the “Click-to-call” linking option. Select the corresponding number. 

Adding a Pop-Up Button

All pages on your website should include a means of conversion, because you must tell your users what to do with the information presented to them. Unfortunately, contact forms and calls-to-action are one of the least utilized elements on websites.


On the other hand, not every page on your website needs a full-blown contact form. This is where the pop-up button comes into play.


In the example below, we added a pop-up button linking to a small contact form, allowing the user to convert without disrupting their flow through the website. Once the form is completed, the user can exit the popup and continue their journey through the website.

1. We started with a “Contact Us” button at the bottom of our page. Click on the button to access the “Button Content” editor.


2. Scroll down the list of linking options, and select “Popup.” This provides access to pre-created popups. To create a new popup, navigate to the Pages tab on the leftmost menu of your Duda editor. Toggle to “Popups.” From here, you can create a custom popup.

Once you’ve created a popup, select this from the linking options on your “Button Content” editor.


3. Click “Preview” on the top menu of your Duda editor to view your pop-up button in action.

Not all devs are equal : how to choose the right duda partner
by Jessica Goodrum 2 June 2025
Before comparing agencies, it’s important to understand the why behind the platform itself. Duda is not just another website builder. It is engineered for speed, reliability, and scalability, especially in agency and B2B environments. With built-in hosting, security, and responsive web design tools, Duda supports both creative expression and operational efficiency. That is why many top website designers have made it a core part of their development ecosystem.
A blog thumbnail for animating vision : how rivalmind brings stories to life on social media

Human beings are wired to create. Imagination isn’t just a tool; it’s a reflection of our inner world. That’s why animation resonates so deeply with us. Even the simplest animated post has the power to spark emotion, tell a story, and forge connection. At RivalMind, we’ve seen how animation can bridge the gap between a brand’s vision and its story. It brings static ideas to life in ways that feel fresh, engaging, and aligned with today’s fast-moving digital landscape. As our clients' needs for social media and web-based animations grew, we recognized it was time to evolve our approach. Previously, we relied on Adobe Illustrator and After Effects to create custom animations. While these tools produced quality results, the time and effort required made it difficult to offer motion design as a scalable, accessible solution. We asked ourselves a simple question, "How can we create high-quality animations efficiently, without compromising creativity?"
