How do I link a Bootstrap icon to a youtube page? Will btn-link work as setup in screenshot?

Hi @kat,  
The ‘btn-link’ class is to make links, `<a>` look like buttons. You need to surround your icon with a standard link element - `<a href=""youtube.com"><i></i></a>`.  
Good Luck,  
Bob

The red video start icon disappeared. What do I need to do please? `<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fdzSOO9yp0" target="_blank"><i class="btn-link fa-play-circle far text-danger"></i><a>`

Hi @kat  
You HTML is malformed. The closing tag on your link element should be `</a>`. I would also remove the ‘btn-link’ class.  
Cheers,
