  Are you referring to the page titled “Read”? If so, it doesn’t look like there are any links in that page. Can you try adding links following the instructions here?

  If you’re referring to a different page, please let me know!

  I am referring to my “friends” page with all the website links.

  Thanks!

  Hi!

  Currently, the links do not have an http prefix, which means they default to http://marnisclaroff.com/friends/www.belovedyoga.com instead of http://www.belovedyoga.com. To fix this, navigate to the Edit Page screen found here:

  https://marnisclaroff.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1983&action=edit

  For each link, change the link from the following:

  <p style="text-align:center;"><a title="www.belovedyoga.com" href="www.belovedyoga.com" target="_blank">www.belovedyoga.com</a></p>

  To this:

  <p style="text-align:center;"><a title="www.belovedyoga.com" href="http://www.belovedyoga.com" target="_blank">www.belovedyoga.com</a></p>

  The only difference is adding the http:// before the link.

  Let me know if you need anything else!
