Question link not showing up

Does anyone see anything wrong with this code? My answer link is working, but I can't get the question link to appear once the answer is being displayed. 

  if (side === 'question') {
    templateData.hint = hint;
    templateData.sideToShow = 'answer';
    templateData.sideToShowDisplay = 'Answer';
  } else if (side === 'answer') {
    templateData.sideToShow = 'question';
    templateData.sideToShowDisplay = 'Question';
  }

a(href=`${id}?side=${sideToShow}`)= sideToShowDisplay

I had this issue. The solution was just to take my anchor link out of the hint if loop by indenting the anchor element once to the left.

I modified my interpolation in card.pug like below and it works for me.

a(href= id + '?side=' + sideToShow ) #{sideToShowDisplay}
