These are the failed addresses http://kck.st/ptgiKr & http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1107850856/penmoto-improved-and-relaunched. I just copy/pasted a third version address into my post and this one worked I don't understand why but am happy that it worked that address is http://t.co/Znd2wgM.

How are you trying to add a link? Visual or HTML editor? What kind of link? On a post, page, links widget, etc.

Is there a network issue? I didn't see a message about one on the Forum page. Thanks.

I just tried to add the link using the link button, and it actually worked this time! Thanks.

I wish I had known this was a temporary issue, as I just spent hours scouring the internet for a solution. Oh well. Next time I'll know to come on here and check for the "network problems" message.

The link I provided is what I am trying to add TO my free blog. And, no, I don't think that this issue was caused by the temporary network problems because I just tried to re-add the link, but still no success.

Look up and see the yellow notice by Staff at the head of the forum in case it's a factor in this.

We experienced some brief network problems and are actively working on getting things back to normal; hang in there!

Clearly, I *am* adding the html code correctly because it worked above when I actually did not want it to. Instead of a link to "NaBloPoMo" which is what I want, and is what happened above, the blog post just shows the html code.

I'm trying to add a link to this website: http://nablopomo.blogher.com

I know that there's a link button but I've always just done the following when adding links:

NaBloPoMo

This is what I've always done, and it's always worked, but, when I look at the blog post in "preview", it just shows the html code above and not the actual link.

I even tried just using the link button, and the same thing happened. What on earth is going wrong?!
