THANK YOU so much for your help. It made a big difference. * I was wondering if you knew how to link pages together? for example…I want people to start on the landing page and be able to read page after page after page without having to go to the menu. Is there a way for me to link to the next page on the bottom of the page? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to make an affiliate link "active" when published](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/) * Thread Starter [changingtheworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/changingtheworld/) * (@changingtheworld) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/page/2/#post-8200222) * Okay….I got the link to work: * [http://www.totalmaleoptimization.com/testosterone-boosting-supplement-rotation/ant-extract/?preview_id=164&preview_nonce=93f5028044&_thumbnail_id=-1&preview=true](http://www.totalmaleoptimization.com/testosterone-boosting-supplement-rotation/ant-extract/?preview_id=164&preview_nonce=93f5028044&_thumbnail_id=-1&preview=true) * But I can’t get it to say Ant Extract. * I changed the theme to twenty ten, which I read was one of the most downloaded. * I also used the “insert link” button and copied and pasted the link into the box that this button brings up. It then allowed me to hit “apply” and the link“ lite up” Now it’s at least clickable and works, but I want it to say “Ant Extract”?? - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [changingtheworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/changingtheworld/). - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [changingtheworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/changingtheworld/). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to make an affiliate link "active" when published](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/) * Thread Starter [changingtheworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/changingtheworld/) * (@changingtheworld) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/page/2/#post-8200208) * Is there a way for me to know what the “default” themes are? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to make an affiliate link "active" when published](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/) * Thread Starter [changingtheworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/changingtheworld/) * (@changingtheworld) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-an-affiliate-link-active-when-published/page/2/#post-8200200) * URL is on a line by itself, as you can see. * Okay, thanks.

I published the page with the link on it. I want to make it look just like word press did.

The link should work independently of any content on the page? I’m not sure why that’s necessary to get the link working? * I’ll place the link on the page and then publish it and then provide a link to that particular page.

It doesn’t “lite up” when you scroll over it or take you anywhere when you click on it? * Please forgive me guys as I am very green with all of this stuff.
