LINKY TOOLS HTML CODE DISAPPEARING IN WORDPRESS
With a recent update, the native Wordpress Design editor (when you write a blog post using the VISUAL view) tries to delete "<script>" tags from your post. This isa WORDPRESS issue, not Linky Tools. Wordpress is trying to do you a "favor" by removing <script> tags which the post editor suspects might be malicious code. It doesn't happen to everyone, but it happens to enough people it's a common problem. There are two solutions (I recommend #2):
-
Work only in HTML view when pasting in your Linky Tools code (applies to javascript code that starts with <script>,,,). Create your post, switch to HMTL view, paste in your code, click Update or Publish. Note: often if you go back to VISUAL to edit the post, your code will disappear.
-
Install the CKEditor for Wordpress plugin which replaces the native Wordpress post editor. Not only is this a GREAT enhancment to the basic editor, it fixes this disappearing code problem.
-
Log in to your blog dashboard
-
Go to ADD NEW plugin
-
Search for: CKEditor for Wordpress; install, then activate...
-
That's it. Note: I've found a couple of plugins (like a contact form plug in) that do not respond in the VISUAL tab with CKEditor but all work just fine if you switch over to the HTML view then use them.
Hopefully Wordpress will fix this issue in a future update.
