# Button shortcode "link" for pages on same site

 * The button shortcode doesn’t work for links that are directed to a page on the
   same site. For buttons that direct to an external site, it works fine. Is there
   something particular about button shortcodes that just link to another page?
 * When you click on the button, it simply reloads the home page (which the where
   button is located).
 * Example: `[button type="default" size="lg"link="<strong>http://site/page</strong
   >"]Find out more[/button]`
