Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

[SOLVED] Link problem in text widget

I am doing a website for a client. She wants to have pictures in the left sidebar to link to various pages internally. I am using the text widget. The problem that I am having is that all of the links are going to the blog page. I am also using widget logic.

What are you putting into the widgets? It would have to be static HTML links such as
HTML Code:
<a href="http://mysite.com/path/to/page/"><img src="/path/to/image.gif" alt="..." /></a>

<img src="http://www.crememagnolia.net/wp-content/uploads/home.jpg" alt="Mag Artists">
</a>

I'm attempting to do this now and I seem to be getting the same issue. I link out using the permalink but when I click the button to the page it sends me to a page that doesn't exist (i.e. an error).

Here is the code I use in the widget:
<a href="http://www.chocolateatime.com/running/ ‎"><img src="http://www.chocolateatime.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Running-button-resized.jpg"/></a>

What is the "_id" solution that I seem to be missing?

Any suggestions are much appreciated!!

I should also add that I basically copy and paste the link for the page into the widget area. However, when I actually click on the widget button to take me to the appropriate page I am taken to a different hyperlink

original link of the page:
http://www.chocolateatime.com/running/

page I am taken to when button is clicked:
http://www.chocolateatime.com/running/%20%E2%80%8E

Why is this happening?

Thanks!
