    surely there must be an easy solution to my problem:
    when editing text on my pages using page-builder, how do i add links?
    when i change to visual or text mode i can link, but they don’t work.

    help would be much appreciated!
    many thanx

    Hi. Try installing and inserting the Visual Editor widget: http://wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/ which will give you an editor to work with in Page Builder.

    HI – I’m another newbie who is trying to insert links into Vantage Premium Theme. I am using the “Visual Editor” widget in Page Builder through Tiny MCE, but my links still just show up as regular text, rather than blue, underlined, active links.
    Is there something I’m doing wrong when I type in the link? I have tried them starting with “https://” and just starting with “www.” but nothing seems to work.

    Any help you can give me?

      Hi DRM

      Please try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS or in your own CSS plugin for Vantage Free:

      /* Links */

#main a { color: #dd3333; }

#main a:hover { color: #2b1100; }

      Edit my colors as required.

    Same problem here. Need to place mail and url links into text widget from Pagebuilder. Above it seems to be solved with the black studio tiny mce plugin. I installed it, but still no possibility to get this working.??

      Hi Jac

      Once installed the Black Studio TinyMCE creates a widget called Visual Editor. In that widget you can use the normal chain icon to add links. Here is how to add email links:
