  Please fix: When I add a link to an existing post, the Edit Post screen unexpectedly is closed and I’m returned to the list of posts. All changes I had made in the Edit Post screen are lost. I can add a new link by going into Text mode when editing the post and putting the HTML in manually and using the Update button for the post instead, but it would be nice to have the Add Link pop up work as it once did. Thanks!

  That’s sounds like a browser issue to me.

  If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com please do these four things:

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache:

  2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled: http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

  4. Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  If it’s still happening, let us know exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://www.whatbrowser.org/ and also post any error reports you get.
