# Google Sheets Hyperlink Functiin

 * Hi! I have a Google Sheet where I use the Hyperlink function (I pass a link, 
   and link text). In the Google sheet as displayed on Google, that results in a
   clickable link. However, even if I have the linkify attribute set, the value 
   does not show the link when I embed the sheet with the plugin – it just shows
   the value as text, and it’s not clickable.
 * Is there a way around that? Thanks in advance!

 * Sigh, this post is “sticky,” literally at the top of the support forum: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-enable-html-in-the-inline-google-spreadsheet-viewer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-enable-html-in-the-inline-google-spreadsheet-viewer)

 * OK, I see that the sticky post linked to another post, which said Hyperlink wasn’t
   supported because Google didn’t export the link.
 * Indeed, I added the code to my functions.php and the hyperlinks from the HYPERLINK
   function did not come through.
 * Thanks for the response.

 * Because _google does not export a hyperlink_. [Use HTML, not Google Sheets formulas, if you want links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperlinks-16?replies=6#post-6929511).
   I can tell you the answer three times but I can not make you understand it, you
   need to do that part.
