Hyperlink text being removed entirely on posts

    I’m faced with an issue of link text being removed on my full content post pages. My site shows posts as excerpts on the post page where the hyperlinks are removed, which I understand is intended. This is fine because the excerpts still contain the text that was hyperlinked, just without the link. The problem is that when selecting “Read More” on the excerpt, the full content page that you’re directed to does not show the link text that was shown on the excerpt. It’s simply removed entirely causing words to be missing from the text. The links appear to be created correctly when viewing from the post editor.

    I’m using the the_content() function to display the full content pages and think the issue has something to do with how that function is displaying the content, I just don’t know what to look for and have unfortunately been unable to find much information on this issue. Any help you can provide would be extremely well appreciated.

    Thank you!

    This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins, and switch to the default Twenty Twenty theme. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of the problem.

    If you can install plugins, install Health Check. On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and change the theme for you, while you’re still logged in, without affecting normal visitors to your site.

    Thank you very much for helping me with this issue! I ran Health Check as you suggested which allowed me to see that this is an issue with my theme. I’ll open a support thread on the forum for the theme I’m using. It’s not very active so I hope I can get support there, but at least now I know where to look. Thanks again!
