  I am having the same problem. I have added my blog url to my list of banner blocked sites. I try to use visual editor but it erases the link info when I first try to enter a link. Then when entered a second time, it freezes up and doesn’t do anything.

  When I use HTML it lists the link, but the 404 message shows up when I go to click on it and the link does not show up. I’m new to WordPress(set up my blog this week) and this is so frustrating. Can anyone help?

  I know it sounds like a Well DUH but make sure you’re clicking the UPDATE button and not the Cancel button. Drupal and a few other platforms have it on the opposite side to WordPress.

  I am clicking insert(it doesn’t say update for me). I am not sure what else to do. I thought it might be a bug but it is still doing it. Is there some type of update I need to do to get rid of this problem?
