    Hi,

    I’m pretty new to WordPress, having switched from Blogger about a month ago.

    I want to include links in my blog post, but I can’t get the titles to display. All you see are the web addresses.

    It worked before, but it’s not working on this post http://anngreennonprofit.com/2014/09/03/ready-set-year-end-appeal/

    I appreciate any suggestions you have.

    Thank you!

    Ann

    If you edit your post, make sure your in TEXT mode (not VISUAL). A link will then look something like this:

    <a title="Show and Tell Time" href="http://anngreennonprofit.com/2014/08/11/show-and-tell-time/">http://anngreennonprofit.com/2014/08/11/show-and-tell-time/</a>

    Change this to: 

    <a title="Show and Tell Time" href="http://anngreennonprofit.com/2014/08/11/show-and-tell-time/">Show and Tell Time</a>

    For future reference, if you want to add a link in your post content:

    1. type the link text (e.g. “Click here”)
    2. select the text
    3. click the LINK button
    4. insert the URL
    5. add a title (optional)

    Click the Add link button.

    Thanks so much! That worked, although it was tedious.
