Links only show when logged in

    I’ve just finished setting up my site etc and got a load of pages (under a page called “Bus services”) which need to be linked to on the Bus Services page. (http://bristolbususers.co.uk/busservices/) . If you look under the First logo you’ll see:

    Via Henbury, Brentry, Westbury, Whiteladies Road, Centre, Broadmead, Temple Meads

    Thats what you can see if your not logged in, where as if you are logged in, you’ll see this (Service 1 has a link on it):

    Service 1 – CRIBBS CAUSEWAY – BROOMHILL
    Via Henbury, Brentry, Westbury, Whiteladies Road, Centre, Broadmead, Temple Meads

    Now what I dont understand is why is it making a difference whether you are logged in or not. I’ve already checked and all links are sent to published and public (nothing is set to private).

    Im not quite sure what is going on so any suggestions would be great.

    Update: What seems very bizarre is that the link will work if I have the rest of the text on the next line below:

    Service 1 –

    CRIBBS CAUSEWAY – BROOMHILL Via Henbury, Brentry, Westbury, Whiteladies Road, Centre, Broadmead, Temple Meads

    Would be nice to have all on 1 line if anyone has a suggestion?

    Thanks

    The blog I need help with is bristolbususers.co.uk.

    Do you want to be like this? In which case, you can see the markup in the lower half of the screen grab.

    Of course, I may have misinterpreted what you were saying entirely?!

    Hi

    Just the “Service 1” with a link. I’ve tried with just “service 1” previously and just completely disappears which makes no sense to me.

    For example, if you look at it now, you cant see “Service 1”. But on another browser, im logged in and can see it, also the text editor is saying:

    <a href="http://bristolbususers.co.uk/busservices/service-1/" title="Service 1">Service 1</a> - CRIBBS CAUSEWAY - BROOMHILL
Via Henbury, Brentry, Westbury, Whiteladies Road, Centre, Broadmead, Temple Meads

    Which to me makes no sense why it wont show normally

    Your code’s good. And the webpage looks good to me too from your description of what you’re trying to achieve. I’m using Firefox 32.

    So perhaps this isn’t a case of being logged in or not, after all I’m not, but something to do with the browser where things aren’t rendering as intended?

    So, that prompted me to try in Safari – no problem – and then Chrome, where it doesn’t look as intended.

    I can only think of two things. Firstly, can you try using this form of break:
    <br />
    instead of:
    <br>
    Else, do you have some fancy filtering or blocking browser addons?

    Hi

    Thats not the issue, I’ve tried that also and still nothing.

    I’ve used Firefox and same issue arrises. Just used Chrome and the link doesnt show when im logged out but shows when im logged in.

    I’ve just BrowserChecker to see if any other browsers that have the issue and indeed it’s exactly the same throughout all browsers so possibly not a browser issue?

    Finally got it working!! No idea what the actual reason behind it was, but did this.

    I decieded to link all the Wessex services and that worked. Looked at the source code and the Wessex Services were linked WITHOUT a / at the end, EG: <a href="http://bristolbususers.co.uk/busservices/service-1">

    Also on the “via” they had around them to make it italics.

    Like I said, no idea what the issue was but I’ve made it all the same and it all now works!

    Bizzare
