 * Hello I am using the Hemmingway theme and when I add a text box widget the hyperlink
   goes crazy. After the link everything is blue and acts like a hyperlink although
   it does not take you anywhere. I am not sure how to modify what I have inserted.
   I follow the general format for hyperlink text, for instance, [Spring Bloom Arts Festival<a/>](http://www.mcac.wildapricot.org/sbaf-artists)
 * any help please.

 * Are you sure that’s the right website? It doesn’t appear to be using WordPress.

 * Thats not proper syntax for html tags, if you close it properly with `</a>` it
   should fix it.
