# Adding hyperlinks

 * I feel like a bit of a fool asking this, but I’ve looked and looked and searched
   and searched but I can’t figure this out.
 * I imported from Excel 2013, and the links I had disappeared. The text is still
   there, but no attached hyperlink. Is there a way to import a table with hyperlinks
   and have them remain in the table? Or do I need to hit insert link and reattach
   each hyperlink?
 * Thanks for your help. `

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The problem here is that the internal formats in Excel and TablePress (which 
   is HTML) differ, and that the current experimental Excel import does not yet 
   support importing links.
    Your best chance might therefore be to save the table
   as HTML and then try to import that.
 * Other ideas are:
    – If your links are just URLs (i.e. the URL is also the link
   text), you could use the TablePress Extension from [http://tablepress.org/extensions/automatic-url-conversion/](http://tablepress.org/extensions/automatic-url-conversion/)–
   Or, if you have some real link text, you might try to use an Excel macro to automatically
   create the HTML code, see [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperlinks-in-cells?replies=6#post-4710730](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperlinks-in-cells?replies=6#post-4710730)
 * If that does not help, you’ll have to re-create the links in TablePress. Sorry
   🙁
 * Regards,
    Tobias
