I’ve edited your post to improve the readability of the code. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read. You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (``) to add backticks around text. ![Pre-formatted-text](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/freecodecamp/original/3X/1/b/1b18854f1059217f29370444396145cc3a0cd8ae.gif) See [this post](https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/forum-code-formatting/25574) to find the backtick on your keyboard. **Note:** Backticks (`) are not single quotes ('). ---

When you ask for help, there is an HELP button (it appears after you try to run the tests 3 times) near the reset button. That button would create a template for a forum post that already contains your code and a link to the step. If you don’t use that, you should at least share a link to the step you are stuck on. For the code you have now, you should have one `p` element, you have two opening tags and two closing tags instead, you also have closed the anchor element after the two closing `p` tags, which makes what you have written illegal nesting. You have also scrambled the starting text, I would suggest you use the reset button to restart the step. You already have a `p` element, do not add a new one. The `a` element needs to go only around the text “[freeCodeCamp.org](http://freeCodeCamp.org)”, you need to put the opening tag of the `a` element right before that and the closing tag of the `a` element right after that. ---

Hi @BlindVisionMan The text `freeCodeCamp.org` should only occur once in the browser preview. Please reset the step to restore the original code. As @ILM mentioned, the anchor element needs to nest the link text. Happy coding ---

Hi, Take it easy and go step by step. Reset the step and you’ll be given the clean code. You should add anchor tags around the text `freecodecamp.org`. Remember, you don’t need to add any new text. The text is there; just add your anchor tags around it. Good luck! ---
