Trouble adding links to blog page

[thecrystalcove]

Hello

I know this is a totally beginner question but i am having trouble adding links to my blog page. Basically i would like to add some links there for other sites that mine can be found on but when i copy in the code they give me instead of appearing as a link, the code that i put in appears instead.

One of the sites i am trying to put a link for is below with the code that they gave me to paste onto my site:

<a href="http://www.jewellerysites.co.uk" target="_blank">Jewellery Sites</a>

This is how it is appearing when i put it onto my blog page instead of the link that i need it to be. It is clear that i am doing something wrong but having no idea on this kind of thing i have no clue how to put it right

I would really appreciate any help that anyone would be willing to offer!

thanks so much
sarah

To embed html you need to do:

!!<
Html for link here
>!!

Actinic then knows to process the code in between those markers as html.

Hello Lee, thanks for taking the time to help

I have put the following:

!!<

it is still not appearing as a link however. I have probably not understood you correctly, i really dont have a clue about any of this code stuff!

You need to do this in a fragment text or description:

!!<
<a href="http://www.jewellerysites.co.uk" target="_blank">Jewellery Sites</a>
>!!
