Hello, using RW 8.6.1 and voyager Pro. Problem is : I can select text in stacks, but when I want to create a link to another page, or URL, the link and unlink buttons remain dull and inactive. Thanks ! ---

Hi thank you Doug, I guess they a re all Stacks 3 or S4S (can’t open a Stack gallery page or plugin page) I could select text in the text stack and get access to the link button. I wanted to do that with a button as a link but it didn’t work. I had to create the link in a text stack, copy it and duplicate the text in the button so it works. I wanted to do it in the header stack with one word, but couldn’t do it.

> [@Massilian](#): > > I guess they a re all Stacks 3 or S4S (can’t open a Stack gallery page or plugin page) Stacks 3? S4S is shorthand for stacks4stacks a 3rd party stack. Not sure what you mean when you say “can’t open a Stack gallery page or plugin page”? > [@Massilian](#): > > I wanted to do that with a button as a link but it didn’t work. You should be able to take a button stack (like the one that came with stacks) and add the link. It’s in the inspector area: ![2020-04-20_11-22-58](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/3/f/3f24b53caaf0eb3c3948dec1f14894246202ce30.jpeg) > [@Massilian](#): > > I could select text in the text stack and get access to the link button. The link buttons at the bottom of the page for stacks 3 only are active for styled text. (the text stack that comes with stacks is an example. > [@Massilian](#): > > I wanted to do it in the header stack with one word, but couldn’t do it. The header stack that comes with stacks is an HTML stack that’s wrapped with an `

` tag. You can still add a link to a single word but would need to do it with native HTML. ---
