</div>

So, post-vdom’ing of the header, this old code:

```plaintext
<script type='text/x-handlebars' data-template-name='/connectors/header-after-home-logo/add-header-links'>
{{#unless showExtraInfo}}
    <a id="recruiter" href="http://sih.onemadogre.com/t/joining-sih/494">Join us!</a>
    <a id="about" href="http://sih.onemadogre.com/c/guild-news-announcements/about-the-guild">About SiH</a>
{{/unless}}
</script>

```

doesn’t work, so I’ve replaced it with:

**note: this code works fine as of, like, early May? anyway my comments below can be ignored**

```plaintext
<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.4">
api.decorateWidget('home-logo:after', helper => {
    const showExtraInfo = helper.attrs.minimized;
        if(!showExtraInfo) {
            return helper.h('div#header-links', [
                helper.h('a#recruiter', {
                    href:'/t/joining-sih/494', 
                    text:'Join Us!'
                }),
                helper.h('a#about', {
                    href:'/c/guild-news-announcements/about-the-guild', 
                    text:'About SiH'
                })
            ]);
        }
});
</script>

```

Which _almost_ works (some css needed to reposition div#header-links, but nbd), except that my links just refresh the page.

I realize this is less a Discourse specific question and probably more a “Yuun’s making a dumb syntax error” question, but I’d appreciate it if someone could give it a look over nonetheless. 😓

Thanks in advance, generous stranger. 🙂

Clarification: my links don’t refresh the page, they just always go to the home page. The hover text for each link is correct, but I guess it’s being overridden by the home logo’s href?
