Footer link

Hello,

I’m looking to add a link to my footer. I already have a privacy policy and disclaimer. I want to add an affiliate disclosure. I can’t seem to get it to show. I go into customize and add it in but it displays (in the customizer) as not evenly spaced. Then when I publish it doesn’t show at all.

I'll do that and get back to you.

Yeah, I took it out so it doesn't show anything.

Is there some sort of rhyme and reason to coding for the footer? I can't seem to recall how I got the current codes for copyright, privacy, and disclaimer.

It accepts any HTML.

The screenshot above shows you how they were added.

Thanks!

This is what I see in the customizer under Layout and Footer:

All content copyright %copy% bradborland.com
<p>
Disclaimer     Privacy Policy

The disclaimer and policy are coded, but are appearing here as links.

When I add a new link it is butted up against the Privacy Policy. It isn't spaced out evenly.

Okay, I put it in. You can check now, thanks!

Update: I just checked. It doesn't save it. I went back in and it's not there. The customizer isn't letting me save it.

I'm even trying to change http to https and it won't let me save that either.

This is what I put in, but it doesn't show the last entry once I publish:

All content copyright %copy% bradborland.com
<p>
Disclaimer     Privacy Policy ‎ <a
href="https://bradborland.com/affiliate-disclosure/">Affiliate Disclosure

Update:

This is what the customizer is showing at the top which doesn't save any changes:

json_parse_error

This should be your HTML:

<p>Line 1</p>
<p>
    <a href="https://LINK1-URL">LINK 1</a>
    <a href="https://LINK2-URL">LINK 2</a>
    <a href="https://LINK3-URL">LINK 3</a>
</p>

Please highlight your code and click code in the editor when posting code here.

Did this:

href="https://bradborland.com/disclaimer/">Disclaimer</a>     <a href="https://bradborland.com/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy</a> ‎    <a href="https://bradborland.com/affiliate-disclosure/">Affiliate Disclosure</a>
</p>

Still not saving.

Getting:
json_parse_error

Even when I delete the changes it still gives the error.

I looked up some stuff.

Do you think it's possible that I had a draft saved in the customizer (gear icon - delete draft)?

Definitely make sure to actually publish the change.

Shouldn't cause the json_parse_error though. Have you tried disabling all plugins except GP Premium?

What do I do once I disable all plugins?

I'm also trying to clean out some plugins from my site. Do I really need a cache plugin?

I have Bluehost. Do they automatically cache without a third party plugin?

Did the error disappear after all plugins except GP Premium were disabled?

If so then you can reactivate them one by one to identify the issue.

Do I really need a cache plugin?

No - we don't use one in this site.

I have Bluehost. Do they automatically cache without a third party plugin?

This is something you will need to check with Bluehost's support.
