#Guidelines

#Best practices

#General

Use TitleUrl when

The page title and URL are both important for user comprehension.
The URL itself offers useful information (e.g., indicating a page title).

#Placement

TitleUrl is typically used in the following places:

Table / List Table : TitleUrl is often used to present a page's title (in a larger font) and its URL (in a smaller font). This is common in sections like Accessibility > Issue details.

#Style

Siteimprove Design System: Adhere to Siteimprove's guidelines for color, typography, and spacing. If you are not using a component from Fancy, match the styling of your TitleUrl to existing components for visual consistency.
Hierarchy:
- The title should be the most visually prominent element, usually in a larger font size and with the appropriate link styling (underline).
- The URL should be displayed below the title in a smaller font size with $color--text--static--body design token.
Clarity:
- Use sufficient color contrast between the title, URL, and background to ensure readability.
- Follow established typography guidelines for font choices, weights, and line heights.
- If the URL is excessively long, truncate it for display using an ellipsis ("…"). On hover, reveal the full URL in a tooltip or similar mechanism.

#Do not use when

The URL is excessively long, complex, or contains sensitive information.
The title alone provides enough context for the link's destination.
In very constrained spaces where a simpler text link is more appropriate. Use Link instead.
