I answered with the_permalink() response was Bummer....
Then tried get_permalink() response also Bummer
Appreciate any help....I'd like to know the correct answer so I can look up that function and review it.

2,232 PointsDetermined that .........the_permalink was the correct answer.........I had answered.......the_permalink()......
Had the same problem with another answer in same quiz concerning post/page titles..... I answered the_title()........got a Bummer.......turned out.......the_title..... without the () was accepted as correct answer
There appears to be little consistency in whether the () should be included in the function answer, or I'm not understanding where you should or shouldn't use the ()....?
