  Why I could not insert links into my post? I have highlighted the words, and the insert link icon was available, but nothing showed up regardless how many times I clicked on the icon.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  This is the guide for creating links in posts and pages: http://en.support.wordpress.com/links/

  This is the general link model:
  <a href="URL HERE">Highlighted anchor text here</a>
  This is the visual result – it’s not actually linked here in this forum thread.
  Highlighted anchor text here

  1. Enter the anchor text you want to link to first.
  2. Then use your mouse to highlight that anchor text. (If you don’t highlight the anchor text the chain icon will remain grayed out and not be useable.)
  3. Next click the chain icon in the editor and proceed to create the link.

  If you still have issues then post specifics. We need to know:
  What kind of links are they?
  Are they links advertising links?
  Are they affiliate links that are widgets or images?
  Are they JavaScript?
  Are they for an iframe?
