  Hello-
  I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem. I looked through the Support Forum and couldn’t find the answer so please redirect me if it’s been answered before.

  In some of my posts, links to outside websites have disappeared. When I look at the post in HTML view the and <a/> tags are still there but the the rest of it is gone (i.e: h href=”http…”). I know I put them in and they were fine because I test the links after I publish. Am I doing something wrong? It doesn’t happen on every post and not on every link per post.

  Most of the links are to things like hotels, transit systems, tourist info. Any help or recommendations are really appreciated.

  Thank you!

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

  My blog is on wordpress.com. It’s hosted here and I log onto wordpress.com to update. Please let me know if I am misunderstanding something.
  Thanks.

  The site linked to your username is not a wordpress.COM blog. Please give us a link to the blog and tell us exactly where this is so that we can take a look.

  @mona, on that page you reference, I’m seeing all the links as OK. I checked the source code, and they all have the href and URL as they should.

  Log out of wordpress, clear your browser cache and cookies, restart your browser and then have another look.
