 * I have a news section that contains titles of news articles and those titles 
   are linked to the actual articles. This won’t work long term because there will
   be too many, plus I want to apply categories so they can be indexed. You can 
   check it out here. [https://nourishyourlife.org/nyl-news/](https://nourishyourlife.org/nyl-news/)
 * Is there a way I can use the post type: link to accomplish this.
 * There is no field to enter a url to have the title hyperlinked… Am I missing 
   something here? I don’t want to enter in the title and then entire the title 
   again within the post to be hyperlinked. That would require double clicking.
 * Let me know.

 * Hi [@ss0530](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ss0530/),
 * You’re not missing anything, Sela styles posts with the link format a little 
   differently but clicking on the post doesn’t redirect to the link you’re sharing.
 * I think I found the perfect plugin for you, though! 🙂 The Redirect Link Format
   modifies posts with the link format so that clicking on them redirects a visitor:

 * Hope that helps you out.
