  I have successfully added a link to my most recent post, but now when someone clicks on the post, it just takes them to the link. I have tried removing the links and then replacing them, but it is still happening. What am I doing wrong?

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

  Hi there!

  The problem was that when you created that link, our system read the post as a “Link Post.” Now, the post is still behaving that way, even though you deleted the link.

  Here’s how you can change that, and make sure that when you add links again, you know how to make corrections!

  Click this link:
  https://merriemiles.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=108&action=edit

  That is your recent post in the Classic version of our post editor. In the right-hand column, you’ll see the Format module…and Link is selected in that module. You should change that to Standard. Then, click Update to save that change.

  That should do the trick! If I can help in any other way, please drop me a line. Cheers :)
