Hyperlinks in cells don't work

Hi,

thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

Importing links from Excel is not possible, I’m afraid, as they use different technical mechanisms.

When re-creating them with the “Insert Link” button, it is important that the link text appears between the HTML tags, like

<a href="...">Link Text</a>

Is that the case in your table?

Hi Tobias,

Thanks for the quick reply!

When using the link button, below is added to the cell text:

There is not space the last character in my cell and the string above.

Last line should have read:

There is no space between the last character in my cell and the string..

Hi,

I’m not really sure what you mean here. Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

Sure..

https://u16kew1.nixweb10.dandomain.dk/?page_id=2

So now, the full cell value is:
Lenotti, Le Olle Bardolino Classico

My cell value is: Lenotti, Le Olle Bardolino Classico

The rest has been added by the insert link function. When I preview the table, of course only my cell value is present, but there is just no link.

Again, thanks for helping out ??

Okay, now I understand why you don’t understand..
When I write html in the post, it is just deleted.. Hmm..
Can I upload a picture here or write you directly somewhere?

Hi,

thanks for the link! Just as I had thought, you will simply have to move the desired link text into the HTML code, as in the example above.
For example, change

Lenotti, Le Olle Bardolino Classico<a href="https://u16kew1.nixweb10.dandomain.dk/?p=1" target="_blank"></a>

to

<a href="https://u16kew1.nixweb10.dandomain.dk/?p=1" target="_blank">Lenotti, Le Olle Bardolino Classico</a>

Can I upload a picture here

Unfortunately, we do not have the ability to upload images here. But you could use https://snag.gy/ and post a url for the image here.

Ok, thanks for this!

Is there a reason it doesn’t not do that automatically when I use the link function. It knows the cell value and I provide the URL, so should it not be possible to join this in a way so it does this by itself..?

As you see, I have quite a lot of links to update, and more will come. Do you know an easy way of doing this or is it just hard work all the way through? ??

Hi,

you can use the “Insert Link” feature, you will simply have to cut and paste the existing cell content into the “Link text” field (via Ctrl-A, Ctrl-X, and Ctrl-V on the keyboard).
With that, the “Insert Link” button will create the correct HTML code.
