I am new, but have read and reread to try and find what I am doing wrong. The link to a FB page on my site gets the “404 not found error” message. An email link does the same. I have double checked and re-entered the URL addresses.

I do not receive any email message from the internal contact form. No error message appears when testing. No confirmation message it has been sent, either. I can live without a contact from if I can fix the other 2 issues

I’ve been reading and researching since yesterday…

Thank you in advance!

A URL might help you get help.

Look at the email link on you page. The link is incorrect, it says:

[http://www.washburncenterbenefit.com/Lbruha5@gmail.com](http://www.washburncenterbenefit.com/Lbruha5@gmail.com)

You don’t need the URL added to the link, that’s why it isn’t working.

Same problem with the email address on your contact form:

[http://www.washburncenterbenefit.com/contact-form/Lbruha5@gmail.com](http://www.washburncenterbenefit.com/contact-form/Lbruha5@gmail.com)

Make sure you put `mailto:email@email.com` And not just the address

Not sure how you are adding the email link, but the ‘URL’ on the page should be:

[mailto:Lbruha5@gmail.com](mailto:Lbruha5@gmail.com)
