Links don't work
-
Hi,
I have a problem with the links on my blog: elsuenosignificado.wordpress.com I have been reading the forums that suggest possible solutions but none of them has worked so far.Those that appear on tabs are o.k. but those that are on posts and side bar aren’t active.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello @irenetraepaz,
I’m sorry to hear this. So you said:
Those that appear on tabs are o.k. but those that are on posts and side bar aren’t active.
May I know how you created your links? Did you use html code?
If you use HTML code, your links should look like this in your editor:
Make sure that the link is correct and complete.

Hello @irenetraepaz,
I checked your website through Chrome’s View Source, and it seems that your links are coded properly.
I am no expert, so I am tagging a WP support to further check this for you. You will find the tag “modlook” on the side.

** HTML links not working, but seems coded properly. See screenshot here: https://i.imgur.com/6GSCnPm.png
I really hope this gets sorted out.

Good morning :)
I copied the information from the Licuc Lenormand widget on to a test site using the custom html widget and the links worked perfectly. Could you give that a try?

Thank you for your help.
I still have this problem.
I checked again with Mozilla and Chrome.

Just to clarify, did you use the Custom HTML widget or the Text widget when you tried in Chrome and Mozilla?
It won’t hurt to clear your browser cache and cookies: https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache
I am wondering if it something specific to your setup since I was able to see it work on my side.

Liz, I don’t know if I understand your question. I visited my blog using the 2 explorers and the situation remains the same. I just cleared cache and cookies with both and tried again. Same result. I can’t use the links on text neither sidebar.
From friends I know they are having the same problem. :(

Hello staff-zinnia, I hope it’s okay to add this:
Her links are coded properly, but from her website they are not working as links – not clickable.
And if you hover your mouse over the suppose to be links, your cursor will not change.
This is a sample: http://prntscr.com/gyxw43
If you will check from the View Source, the HTML code for that link is correct.

Hi Rose –
Of course you are always welcome to contribute here!!!!
When I used the html widget the links were working. I’ll take another look over the site, because I think I just looked at the widgets previously.

Hello –
Can everyone take another look at the site? The links are all working for me. I just want to confirm that is the case for all of us.
There was a
</div>in the widget that I fixed and that seems to have fixed everything up. -
Hello staff-zinnia, thank you. :) I am looking at her website again now, and the links are now all working. :) :)

What a nice attitude, rosepajaroja and your technical knowledge was key, lizkarkoski.
Happy day for you.
