    URL links on these pages (and similar pages) are no longer behaving as links (the link ‘hand’ icon does not appear when you hover over the link). The links are all correctly set up and were working OK until very recently. I have tested on Chrome and Edge browsers, on Windows.

    I notice that a rather odd-looking ‘Sponsored Content’ link has appeared (under the Search box, towards top right). Presumably this is associated with advertising content, since I don’t have a Premium account? I don’t recall seeing this before, and it doesn’t look like it should display on the page in that ‘untidy’ way?

    Can you help? Thanks, John

    Hi there!

    Thanks for reaching out! Your links were working just fine, but it looks like the Outbrain ads <div> at the bottom of your post was interfering with the table you set up to list those links.

    We’ve disabled that specific type of ad on your site and that seems to have fixed that problem and the weird “Sponsored” header that was in your right-hand sidebar.

    You should be all set! Let us know if you have any questions.
