 * I was wondering how I could place a hyperlink in a body of text and have it not
   show as a hyperlink. To have it look like plain text.

 * with css?
 * set the link color to the ame as the surrounding text; make the :hover style 
   the same as well, and manipulate the cursor style;
    for instance:
 * `a, a:link, a:hover { color: #000; cursor:text; text-decoration:none; }`
 * edit:
 * [@esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/):
    i thought the same; but 
   why not?
