Title: a href in header.php not working Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # a href in header.php not working * [bsapaka](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bsapaka/) * (@bsapaka) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-href-in-headerphp-not-working/) * I placed at the bottom of header.php: `Facebook ` * So that I can have a link above my content on all pages. It doesn’t work, not even registering as a link (I right click and “open in new tab” isn’t even an option). * How can I get this to work?
