Wordpress 2.5 Add/Edit Link Problem
When I started using Wordpress 2.5, I really liked some of the features. But I have been noticing little bits of weirdness here and there. The biggest one is that the Add/Edit Link button in the Visual Editor didn’t seem to work. I could put in whatever I wanted, but it would not create a link.
The workaround was easy enough, since you could just add the links within the HTML Editor and they worked fine, but switching editors felt like a pain. While I did not find a fix to the problem, I’ve found a workaround. Wordpress’s built in post editor is called TinyMCE. There is a Plugin that will add extra functionality to TinyMCE called TinyMCE Advanced.
I just installed this plugin and links seem to work fine. It also looks like it adds a bunch of features to the editor, but I have not had time to play with all of them yet.
So if you are having trouble with links in Wordpress 2.5, try installing the TinyMCE plugin. It seemed to work for me. Just make to clear your browser cache so you do not see the old editor.
