  Can you talk me through how to include a website as a link (highlighted in blue). I have a few within the text of my pages but am unable to activate the link. See ‘About Lisa’ for details. Thank you

  Hi Lisa,

  To add links to your blog posts, you will need to use the “Add Link” button in your Visual Editor.

  As an example, to add a hyperlink to http://www.builtinbristol.co.uk/ on your “About Lisa” page, head on over to your Dashboard -> Pages -> Edit page. Then, use your mouse to highlight the http://www.builtinbristol.co.uk/ text. While the text is highlighted, click on the button at the top of your Visual Editor that looks like a chain link — this is the “Add Link” button.

  After clicking on this button, insert the URL to which you’d like to link — in this case http://www.builtinbristol.co.uk/ — and click “Add Link.”

  Then, just update your post by clicking on the “Update” button :)
