 * Hello
 * Sorry if I’m being really thick here, but I used to be able to insert links with
   anchor text by clicking the black link button that came up in the box. Now that
   link symbol has turned red and it’s now “Dynamic Links”. I just want to link 
   anchor text to another page on my site (“Essex” – like Kent, Surrey etc have 
   been)
 * Does anyone know how to do this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fnormal-links-rather-than-dynamic%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@whitevanweddingco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whitevanweddingco/),
 * No need to worry – we are here to help!
 * To clarify, the black link button should still be available (you can check it
   out here: [https://imgur.com/a/BfaWRXn](https://imgur.com/a/BfaWRXn)). This button
   allows you to insert standard links with anchor text just like before. If you
   want to link the text “Essex” to another page on your site, select the text, 
   click the black link button, and enter the desired URL.
 * The **red “Dynamic Link” button** is a feature that lets you create dynamic links.
   You can read more about it [here](https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1721-the-dynamic-link-feature-otter-features-library).
 * If you’re having trouble seeing the black link button, please ensure that both
   the plugin and WordPress are up to date. You might also find these resources 
   helpful for clearing your cache and identifying any possible plugin conflicts:
   [How to clear the Cache in WordPress](https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1526-how-to-clear-the-cache-in-wordpress)
   and [Troubleshooting guide](https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1112-theme-doesnt-work-as-expected-troubleshooting-guide).
 * Please let us know if we can help you with anything else!
 * Best regards,
 * Mara

 * Hi Mara,
 * Thanks for your help! How weird, thew actual link icon isn’t there, but when 
   I hover there it is, but invisible. I think I’ve found a bug. Everything’s up
   to date, but I’m using Safari on Mac, maybe thats the problem: [https://imgur.com/6oBjO66](https://imgur.com/6oBjO66)

 * Hey [@whitevanweddingco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whitevanweddingco/),
 * Thank you for the update!
 * I also tested on Safari on Mac and the button still showed on my end. Could you
   try clearing your cache and using the Troubleshooting guide mentioned in my previous
   message? These steps can help us identify whether it’s a caching issue or if 
   another plugin might be interfering.
 * Additionally can you please try and switch temporarily to another theme to also
   rule out a theme conflict with Otter?
 * Please let us know how it goes!
 * Kind regards,
 * Mara
