 * Hyperlinks aren’t working.
 * When I try to enter a hyperlink into a page, using the Text field, for example:
 * `<a href="http://www.apple.com>Apple</a>`
 * The word “Apple” appears on the page but it is unclickable.
 * I’ve tried doing this manually and using the hyperlink buttons.
 * Any suggestions?
 * thanks

 * You are missing the closing ” marks on that code – works fine on my end with 
   the code as..
    `<a href="http://www.apple.com">Apple</a>`

 * Thanks!
 * Yeah, I noticed that too. I corrected it but I am still not getting working hyperlinks.
 * However, I did do some more troubleshooting and found that my problem is from
   a custom page template that I created.
 * I wanted the pages, with the exception of the homepage, to not show any sidebars.
   I was able to achieve that with the custom page template but for some reason 
   my hyperlinks are now not working.
 * Hmmmmm…
 * Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks.

 * If you’d like to share the template code via [pastebin](http://pastebin.com/)
   I’ll be more than happy to have look at it and see what the cause is.

 * I changed the class “site-content” to “custom-site-content” and in a child-theme
   wrote this:
 *     ```
       .custom-site-content {
       width: 100%;
       float: left;
       }
       ```
   
 * I did this because I wanted the text to fill the entire page.
 * Thanks.

 * Still not being redirected to pastebin – just a page on the site with Simon &
   Turtle link.
 * Lets try something else. Please create an account here and the drop a zip file
   of the templates in my dropbox: [http://wpdefault.com/drop-share/](http://wpdefault.com/drop-share/)
 * Taking a break for a few hours but I’ll check on it as soon as I’m back online
   and then get back to you.

 * Unfortunately I am unable to register and set up an account at that link. But
   I did setup a pastebin account and I posted the code for the custom page template.
 * Let me know if you need anything else.

 * Sorry but I can’t get to the code unless you paste the pastebin link here
 * Or you can give your profile that should look like this: [http://pastebin.com/u/ridizain](http://pastebin.com/u/ridizain)
   and I’ll try and get to the code from there if its not marked private.
