Project link disappears

Illdy

I have added three projects to the theme with a title and a picture. There is also a field where you can enter a link, so that users can click on the project photo and go to a pagewith info about the project. However, I am unable to set a link for any of my projects. Whenever I type or copy a URL into the “link” field, the URL is there for a short while and then disappears as soon as I click to save and publish.

I have tried entering URLs in different formats, I have tried typgin and copying. Nothing seems to make a differnce. The link keeps disappearing.

How can I solve this?

This is also happening to my website as well. I paste in the link, republish, and then the link completely disappears. It seems like a bug.

Hi,

It seems like a bug like you guys told, for now can you try this,

go to /wp-content/plugins/illdy-companion/widgets/class-widget-project.php using any FTP browser like FileZilla, if you’re don’t know the FTP Login details contact your host about this, OR Simply install WPIDE plugin and do the edit.

in line #77 you will see this line,

$url = !isset( $instance['url'] ) ? sanitize_text_field( $instance['url'] ) : '';

change that to,

$url = !empty( $instance['url'] ) ? sanitize_text_field( $instance['url'] ) : '';

Let us know,

Thanks,

Changing line #77 fixed the issue on my website. If it links to the image, make sure you disabled the lightbox options in Customizer > Front Page Sections > Project Section. And make sure you specified a different URL than the picture’s URL.

I hope it helps you.
