Adding Links in Post templates

Forum › General Inquiry

    Hello everyone,

    I’m enjoying using Publii, however I have a bit of an issue when trying to use post templates. When I have a link in the normal editor like:

    


    It works as intended. However, if I put the same code in a post template, the link doesn’t work anymore. It’ll just add #INTERNAL_LINK#/post/16 to the url of the page you are on. How can I fix this?
    

    Thanks everyone for the help!

    Where exactly do you paste the link – to the post-template.hbs file?

    A post template that I made myself called post-TEMPLATE_1_1 and added to config.json. It all works too, just the link in the post template doesn’t.

    please be precise: do you paste this link to post-TEMPLATE_1_1 or to a post with an assigned post template?

    Inside the post template itself, not in a post where the post template is assigned to. (Links in a post with this post template do still work as intended). Thanks for the replies so far by the way!

    This way it won’t work, when you use an internal link into post content, Publii parses it to the requested link.
    
If you want to use a link into .hbs file you should use, for example,
