    I created a blog on http://www.cashlines-review.com using fantastico. I made the first post sticky but now the links in the post have gone crazy and despite removing the post and re-entering both as normal & html I still get issues;
    Like Join CashLines should open to http://www.cashlines-review.com/CashLines but opens as %3Cb%3Ecashlines%3C/b>-review.com/CashLines
    Also despite having images in the media library they would not show in the post.

    Would be grateful for any suggestions please.

    Are you copying and pasting in from another application?

    Thanks for reply.
    Originally it was written direct to the blog then when problems arose which I couldn't fix I pasted from Frontpage.

    Don't paste content from other applications into WordPress as the pasted text may also contain the application's own formatting. Sooner or later, this formatting will stop your pages from being displayed correctly. For example, right at the top of your first post, the link markup reads:

    <a title="" rel="external" target="_blank" href="http://www.<b>cashlines</b>-review.com/CashLines ">CashLines</a>

    which is a completely malformed link url.
