Note
Adding HTML to the content column, ex: <a href="https://url">text</a>, requires changing smart quotes to regular quotes. You will have to copy/paste regular quotes from a text editor or from the Coda formula builder or from within a code block style like this text. Typing quotes into a text field will automatically change them to smart quotes.
