Links do NOT show…

Have you tried:
-deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

… hi, Matthew; yes, the problem started before any plugin(s) were activated and persisted through the activation of one plugin “Query Monitor”, which was activated to possibly detect the problem… since your note; i have deactivated the QM plugin and set up a new page here:

( https://www.effetti.co/?page_id=90 )

to retest the issue under the configuration you suggest… still no link ;(…

~ appreciate your note, thank you !!

Edin is one of two themes that have produced the exact same result…

What is the other theme? Maybe you should contact the theme developers and see what they say.

… it was “Moesia”… yes, thanks ?? !!

Ok, let me know the result.

… getting a clear link to the developers seems elusive… i’ve spent a little bit of time clicking around for a direct contact within WP… nothing pops out… i also did a “review” of the theme yesterday in hopes that i would be contacted by someone on the developer team… no such luck yet… finally just Googled them and sent an inquiry from a contact form on their website… will update, thanks ?? !!

Did you post it in the Themes Support forum if they have one? If it is on www.remarpro.com then they will have one.

… no, just this forum… the theme review was somewhere within WP too… i don’t see a “themes support forum” on their website, here: ( https://automattic.com )… it is a free template, so i am not surprised that there is no real interest in supporting it directly, and, instead burden shifting that cost to the “community”… am i missing something !!?… appreciate your persistence here, Matthew, thank you ?? !!!…

Here are there WordPress support forums.

What happens if you us the Twenty Fourteen theme? Does the problem still occur?

… hi, Matthew; i appreciate the links, thank you… i posted in support/theme/edin several hours ago… the link insertion tool in the editor did NOT work correctly there either… nor did it work when i switched the theme to Twenty Fourteen as you suggested… inserting a link by way of the link tool in the editor(s) doesn’t really work anywhere i go here on WP… i have two sites, problems… support forums, problems… i am beyond baffled ;( !!!… believe it, or not, there is a link between that brackets below… as you can see there is nothing…

Which browser are you using?

… Safari version ( 7.0.2 )… running on OSX version ( 10.9.2 )…

Have you tried it on a different browser?

… yes, and no… i tried it on Firefox, but it was an old version… same result… i tried it on several other devices, but the browser was still Safari… i need to do some updates and then i am thinking about installing Chrome on the machine that i use the most… tomorrow i am going to see if i can’t get on a completely different machine somehow and test from there… thanks again ?? !!!…

it wasn’t the browser, here is the fix, and here is the proof… appreciate your help, Matthew, thank yoU ?? !!! – db
