[Typo3] cwt_press_center links not working

Sounds like tt_news to me ...

Sorry - can't help you there since we never used cwt_press_center

Still sounds like tt_news to me, and the subscription/mailing job can be
done with the direct mail (+ direct mail subscription) plugin.
tt_news has got one of the most detailed documentations and tons of
different possibilities due to the extensive use of TypoScript and HTML
templates.
The extension is updated with bugfixes and improvements every few weeks and
offers almost any feature from your wishlist.

For the direct mail plugin you will find a tutorial by Marlies Cohen that
describes step by step how to do it.
You can create the newsletters/direct-mails as standard pages in the tree.
Content elements can be put in categories so that you need just one page to
fit the needs of different target groups so people will only get what they
subscribed for.
Its even possible to send news listings to the subscribers offering the
detailed view of the news on klick.
On top you get a statistics module that shows you how many mails have been
sent, how many users klicked on different links and everything else that
might be useful to improve the qualityof your newsletters.

Give them a try.
