Hello.

Can anyone help me with what i did wrong on the links on this page?
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8411994/fullcredits?ref_=tt_cl_sm#cast


I tried to make links to this page:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6054846/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_2

And do like described her:
https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/other-submission-guides/linking-names-and-titles-in-text-based-lists/G3SKJC2XJEHCMRS8?ref_=helpsrall#

But the link does not appear on the page just [link=tt6054846] in plane text?

 

Sincerely Kristin

You put the [link=...] in quotes. Take the quotes off, and it will do what you expected.

No quotes were used on the Help page.

Unfortunately I answered without testing my theory. The quotes work fine with [link=...] in a list description, with or without spaces.

So it may be that link markup isn't supported within the character and/or attribute fields.

You may want to submit a plot synopsis for the episode. I know that link markup works there.
And/or you may want to submit a title connection for the episode.

Hi Kristin,

Thanks for your post.

The link feature can only be used in free text datatypes (quotes, bio's, trivia, etc) - I've updated the existing credits for you now:
