# Comment author link problem

 * When an author doesn’t leave a website link, the output is still a link with 
   a blank URL ([http:///](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-author-link-problem-2/?output_format=md)).
   The tag I’m using for it is
 * <?php comment_author_link() ?>
 * I’m using version 1.5. If I use <?php comment_author() ?> then it just displays
   text even if they leave a link. Suggestions?
