Widgets trouble, again.
-
I always have trouble with widgets – unless someone on the forum helps.
This time widget no. 14 (February 2016: keep yourSELF healthy) is not clicking through, though I can see no difference between that and the formula for the other widgets. ????
Thank you!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It looks like you manually created each of these links as a manual text widget.
I noticed that the URL for the February post in question is: https://thoughtforfoodaw.wordpress.com/2015/03/08/february-2106-keep-yourself-healthy/.
Note the 2106 instead of 2016. Your manual link is pointing to: https://thoughtforfoodaw.wordpress.com/2015/03/08/february-2016-keep-yourself-healthy/

On a further note, you may want to consider using the Recent Posts Widget or a Custom Menu Widget.

Thank you! It is so easy (for me) to overlook these tiny differences.
I didn’t know you could to it any other way than manually. Will look into it. Love, Annemieke. -

What would be the advantage of changing to ‘Recent Posts Widget’ or ‘Custom Menu Widget’ for me, ariwinokur? I am a bear of little brain, and can only just manage WordPress as it is, so any change would have to be very well worth the trouble …..
Love, A. -
By using the Recent Posts Widget, you will have a single widget that will automagically update to show your most recent posts. If you have a specific set of posts or pages that you want to display at all times, then you should go with Custom Menu Widget. The big advantage of both of these over your current method is that you will be using only one widget for this situation and there will be less chance of typos like you have now.

Best of luck to you! I recommend taking the dive. This is the best way to learn. Take careful notes, and you can always reverse whatever you do.
