[Plugin: TinyMCE Advanced] When I click on an image, to create a link, it doesn't stay.

    When I click on an image or photo on a page, and try to create a link to another page or website, it just doesn’t stay. It reverts back to what ever it was before.

    It’s odd, I can highlight text and easily create a hyperlink to another page within my site or to an external site, etc., but if I click on an image or photo and then click on the hyperlink button, and set a link .. and then click update (on the page), the link reverts back to the original link (which is to the page for the image) or to the previous setting that was in the hyperlink URL area.

    I also just noticed that the “title” changes and stays, but the URL to the link reverts back.

    I tried this in both Firefox and Chrome and it happens the exact same way in both.

    Do you have any advice as to what is possibly causing this and how I can resolve it?

    Thanks,
    Gary

    I think I got closer with regard to how to reproduce this issue.

    When I click on an image to change the link, it’s fine. But if I click the “Unlink” icon in TinyMCE Advanced, it removes the link (as expected).

    But .. after I have clicked on the “Unlink” button, and the link is removed, I can no longer use the “Insert/edit Link” button to re-add a new link on an image or photo.

    I have disabled all plugins and switched to just using the Twenty Eleven 1.3 theme, and the issue still remains. So, it’s not a plugin conflict (from what I can tell) and it doesn’t have to do with the theme, since I tried it with a “Builder Theme, from iThemes” as well as the standard WordPress Twenty Eleven 1.3 theme.

    If I manually go in and add an <a href="whereever"> around the image </a> .. then I am again able to use the “Insert/edit Link” button. But since many of my clients do not know HTML, this is an issue for them.

    I am curious if this is a bug that can be fixed or if you feel it is something else that may be on my side of things.

    I’d appreciate any thoughts, suggestions, etc. on how to resolve this.

    Thanks,
