Bug: html link within a column item is not supported

dirklohmar · February 2020

If I use an html web link starting with http:// in a column item within the current betheme theme, this will result in the following errors:
1. Despite saving, the html code is not saved. Instead, the pre-existing html code is saved!??
2. The link we therefore do not execute

html Example:

--------------------<h2>Google Web Fonts</h2>

When you visit a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font will be used by your computer.

Hello,

First of all, your html code looks broken, please take a closer look and check, that you have too many quotation mark - but, it could be the problem related to the parsing the strings on forum.

Please send us a link to your website and provide us with your hosting environment settings, to do that please follow these steps:
1) Go to the Wordpress > Tools > Site Health http://prntscr.com/nlyb22
2) Click at the “Info” on the top of the page and open the “Server” tab http://prntscr.com/nlybm2
3) Take a screenshot of the content inside that ‘Server’ tab http://prntscr.com/nlybyr
Please make sure you are using Wordpress 5.2 or later, previous versions did not have this option built in.

Please use snag.gy or pasteboard.co to host the screenshot and send us the link to it.

Thanks
