  I’m wondering how to include a link in the caption of an image. The add hyperlink button works just fine, but when I save the draft, the link is no longer there.

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

  WordPress.COM, does not as of now allow links or other HTML in captions. They are stripped out. Perhaps in the future, but no one knows.

  Zemanta actually puts links in if you use it, but WordPress strips them out again

  same thing happens to me but for some reason it worked here, in a gallery: http://intermediatelandscapes.wordpress.com/2011/04/05/regenerating-cultural-landscapes-llobregat-textile-colonies-master-plan/?preview=true&preview_id=423&preview_nonce=024daf99a0

  but not in a regular post: http://intermediatelandscapes.wordpress.com/2011/03/05/fitting-into-the-city/

  how come?
