 * Hi,
 * I have a plugin that doesn’t quite do what I want. If a user isn’t logged in,
   it tells them they need to log in, but doesn’t give a link, so I’d like to add
   the link.
 * This is the original code:
 * `elseif (!is_user_logged_in()) echo "<p>If you want to add yourself to this blog,
   please log in.</p>";`
 * I tried the following, but it gave a 500 error:
 * `elseif (!is_user_logged_in()) echo "<p>If you want to add yourself to this blog,
   please <a target="_blank" href="/">log in</a> or <a target="_blank" href="/wp-
   signup.php">sign up to the network</a> then refresh this page.</p>";`
 * Is there a way in which I can do this?
 * Thanks.

 * I’m pretty sure you could do this by changing the ” to ‘ for the echo:
 * `elseif (!is_user_logged_in()) echo '<p>If you want to add yourself to this blog,
   please <a target="_blank" href="/">log in</a> or <a target="_blank" href="/wp-
   signup.php">sign up to the network</a> then refresh this page.</p>';`

 * Thanks bythegram, that did the job perfectly.
 * Sometimes it is better to look for the simple solution first 🙂
