Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Blogroll Links

WordPress hides the Links Manager by default in newer versions. To enable it, you have two options: Option 1: Install the "Link Manager" plugin from WordPress.org. Option 2: Add this code to your theme's functions.php file: add_filter( 'pre_option_link_manager_enabled', '__return_true' );

This plugin extends WordPress' links functionality by enabling you to show links within the content of your Posts and Pages, not just in sidebars. It takes full advantage of the WordPress links database and management tools.

Make sure the Links Manager is enabled (see above) Verify the category slug matches exactly (check in Links > Link Categories) Check that your links are not set to "hidden"
