    Hi,

    candidate is a post object so if you want to get the post URL, you can use the WordPress function get_the_permalink()

    2. Candidate Link: {{ mb.get_the_permalink( candidate.ID ) }} <br/>

    The fields in the list Insert Fields would not work if you use the custom query (get_posts). Use the WordPress functions base on the post ID instead.

    Hi Oliver,

    You can use a <a> tag to show a link and assign the URL field to the href attribute. Just like:

    <a href="{{ post.url }}">{{ post.url }}</a>
