  Hello

  Pardon the newbie issue; can’t get going until I get the essentials down.

  I am trying to insert a link to an image. Following the instructions of http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/07/22/five-photo-fixes/, I am
  typing the following in my caption and trying to get it to read “These are The Hill People of Thailand” and I want the bold part to be a link
  =========================================
  These are
  ===========================================
  It comes out as “These are” and nothing else. And I’m confused what the description is, how it is different from the caption and why there are HTML shortcuts. Am I supposed to use that field to insert a link?

  I am using the 2012 theme. Please help

  Thanks

  wow: is there a preview tab? sorry I keep screwing this up
  I did type the open tag < so it should look like this:
  <a href="http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_tribe_(Thailand)" title="The Hill People of Thailand"></a>
