Web Link in Blog Page not working?
-
Hi, in one of my Page’s on my Blog, I list a web address, and for some reason it isn’t showing up as a click-able link?
Am I doing something wrong? Here’s the Link http://whitejade.smackjeeves.com/
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Oh dear. That’s bad.
You are copy/pasting into your blog, either from somewhere else on the web or from Word. Stop, immediately. That’s what’s causing your problems, and it’s only going to get worse, to the point where it kills the blog.
First: Go to settings->General and select “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML” and save that. Then go to the post and edit it; change anything at all, however slight. Update that. Then go to the front of the blog and check to see if it’s working now. You’ll have to do this for every post that currently exists, but having done it once, you should be fine from now on.

Hmm, I’m in General Settings, but I don’t see anything that says “WordPress should correct invalidy nested XHTML”

Thans Air, I did find where to click that, unfortunately when I went in a Rain suggested, deleted and rewrote the Link, and updated it, it still doesn’t work.
Pan, I’m new to the site, but from what I’ve read http://darkjade68.wordpress.com/ is not a wordpress.org address
-
Oh Pan perhaps you’re referring to the address in the initial post, yeah that’s the address of the Link I have in one of my wordpress.com page’s, my actual blog address is as shown above
-
Sorry, I thought http://whitejade.smackjeeves.com/ was the link to your blog.
How exactly are you trying to create the link?
-
No problem, I’m just typing http://whitejade.smackjeeves.com/ also tried http://www.whitejade.smackjeeves.com both seem to work in the forum, but not in the blog
-
URLs don’t automatically become links like they do here. You type or paste, then highlight it, click the Link button and paste the URL in the popup window.
By the way, on your page you’ve mistyped the address as http://www.whitjade.smackjeeves.com instead of http://whitejade.smackjeeves.com/ .
By the way 2, I don’t see why rain suggested the XHTML thing: I’m not seeing any evidence of bad copypasting in your blog.

Well I can’t thank you enough, you’ve gone above and beyond the call of duty as it were… That worked… And you are right, during my messing with it I mistyped the address on one of the two pages with the address… I fixed that as well, now both pages with the address have Link’s that work
Thank you to all of you for your efforts, I appreciate it
