 * Can you please clue me in as to what I’m doing wrong? I inserted the
 *  [link-library-cats settings=1]
 * on the directory page, and they showed up nicely, but they weren’t hyperlinked
   to go to those categories.
 *  thanks. this is a wonderful tool and after 45 minutes I discovered why my _blank
   was coming out weird with too many \\\ and redundant stuff. you literally only
   have to put in _blank (w/o quote marks) and it works.

 * You need to activate the “Embed HTML anchors” option for these links to be active.

 * I am having the same problem. I checked the box “Embed HTML Anchors” but no success.
   Any other ideas?

 * Can you give me a link to the page where the problem is occuring? That way, I
   can take a look at the page code and see what the problem might be.
 * Thanks.
