I hired someone to set up a site with a nice layout for me. I’m happy with how it looks but there were a few bugs I asked the designer to fix. Now I’ve noticed a few more issues such as two buttons that say “view all” on my blog and in another section but the buttons are linked to the wrong pages. I can’t figure out how to unlink them. I’d really like to just hire someone new who can take a fresh look at the site. Is this possible or is it better to go back to the same people? They seem to rush everything which probably results in these issues.

I will do it for 20 / Hr. I run my own website company. Let me know if your interested!
From my experience, if you don’t feel comfortable with them, it’s almost always a better idea to find someone that can listen and make things the way you need them (and offering their advice/expert opinion without forcing it down your throat). Plus it sounds that they didn’t do a proper handoff.
If it’s just some minor tweaks it’s probably easy and you could do it by yourself if the designer used a page builder or blocks.
For what you mention, and if you want to, message me (private or here) the website and which things you need to change. And most likely I could point you on the right direction on how to change them, and/or if it’s something that you’d be better off handing it to an expert designer/developer.
If they’re rushing through so severely that they don’t even notice two buttons both saying “view all,” maybe you would be better off in the long-term establishing a working relationship with someone else who is more methodical and who will take the time to make sure it’s correct. Obviously I can’t know for sure, but based on your description, these sound like things that just got overlooked because the dev was trying to get it done as fast as possible.
Still, these sound like minor problems that the original dev should be able to fix in a few minutes, and it might take a little longer for a newly hired dev to solve problems made by someone else (since they’d need to take time to figure out what they were thinking, how their code works, etc), so it depends- do you just want this specific problem fixed fast, or do you want to work with a dev that you might want to work with long-term?
