I've tried everything I know with no success.
var inputValue = document.querySelector('input#linkName');
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>DOM Manipulation</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<body>
<div id="content">
<label>Link Name:</label>
<input type="text" id="linkName">
<a id="link" href="https://teamtreehouse.com"></a>
</div>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

var inputValue = document.querySelector('input#linkName');
is incorrect. Use this instead:
var inputValue = document.querySelector('#linkName');
Since IDs should be unique to a page, '#linkName' is all that is required.
See this example: https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_document_queryselector
