Invalid link attribute extension in Google Analytics

I am trying to use the link to the extended link to Google Analytics on my site - https://nerdscorekeeper.azurewebsites.net

Normal analytics on a page works very well, but I need to use an extended link because I have many links that point to the same page, and I need to distinguish them. Following the link, Google states that:

If the element does not have a unique identifier, then Google Analytics searches three levels higher in the DOM structure for the unique identifier (i.e. the element’s parent parent): https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2558867?hl=en&ref_topic = 2558810

Links that have this problem have a unique identifier at the parent or parent level, but they are still the wrong attributes. Below is a screenshot showing that this does not work:

I have the Enhanced Link Attribution property included in my Google Analytics property and I have made changes to the tracking code as well:

ga('require', 'linkid', 'linkid.js');

Any idea what's missing here?
