Project Section URL entry is useless

I try to add a URL to the URL field of Project entries, which I expect it to be clickable and redirect to the URL I have assigned. but when I click save and publish, the URL is gone again and on the front end when click on the Projects, instead of redirecting me, it only enlarges the image.what is that field used for then??

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

Please try adding the URL in the following format:“www.websitename.com”, you need to remove the “http:\” from the link.

Best Regards,

I have the same problem and put URL without http:\ and it still disappeared.

Hi @stmichel,
Thanks for keeping in touch with us.

This field is a bit tricky and has been reported to the developer as a bug, however, I just went in and tested https://www.google.com and sure enough, it worked.

Just experiment with the http// or non http:// versions of the link and see which works for you.

I hope this helps :slight_smile:

Best Regards,

:frowning: not working, with or without http://. it disappears as soon as I press publish button.
any other idea?

Hello guys from support,
thanks for your help, I literally tried everything - even to place a custom URL into the image settings but it always disappeared.
I’ve seen in some recent discussions that it has been reported as a bug and it should be fixed with the update of the Illdy plugin so I wonder whether it’s true.

Hello there,

Thanks for keeping in touch.

This issue has indeed been reported to the developer so that he can fix the issue and release an update for the theme.

Thank you guys, I hope it’ll be solved soon. I have my portfolio there and it looks unprofessional to potential clients when I can’t link to my work.
