  when I preview my page the buttons dont display properly they show the content not the graphic.

  like this

  <a class=”wp-block-button__link” href=”<a
  href=”mailto:[email redacted]”>Email me!Contact Us

  Will this display correctly and function if I publish?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Did you copy the original code, because there is a typo in the code:

  <a class=”wp-block-button__link” href=”<a
  href=”mailto:(email redacted)”>Email me!Contact Us

  You don’t need the <a again.

  The correct one:
  Email me!Contact Us

  Maybe this will help.

  Oh, haha. My code turned into an actual link :D

  Well at least we know it works :P

  Again, the corrected version:

  Email me!Contact Us

  Wow. Okay.

  I am just gonna put [letter a] where you will need to write ‘a’.

  <[letter a] href=”mailto:(email redacted)” class=”wp-block-button__link”>Email me!Contact Us</[letter a]>

  @csabarakasz,

  Don’t use the quote option in the forums when posting code for someone.

  When posting code, you’ll want to use the code button instead. Or just wrap the code in backticks.

  <a class=”wp-block-button__link” href=”mailto:(email visible only to moderators and staff)”>Email me!Contact Us</a>

  Hmm, I thought I used the

  code

  button at the first time and still turned into an actual link. I must have done something wrong then. Thanks for the feedback @kokkieh.
