Where has the scroll bar gone when writing posts?

    I’m not even sure how to ask this so here goes:

    When I’m writing or editing a new post, usually I can scroll down to the end of the draft and edit the picture or media by clicking on the little pencil or “x” icon attached to the media. Today as I was trying to edit the photo, I could only reach the bottom of the text – I couldn’t see the picture at all. I know the picture is there because when I published it, I could see it. But I could not see it in the draft. Even now, I’d like to edit the photo URL link to open to a new page but I can’t even see the photo to edit it. I thought maybe I’d removed something inadvertently from the toolbar but that’s just a guess.

    The theme is Chunk and my blog is http://www.themeanvegan.com.

    Hi there,

    We recently rolled out some changes to the Editor including the removal of the scrollbar within the post editor. Now, the post editor should automatically expand as you type or add images. However, we’re still working out some issues regarding accessing various parts of the post. I’ve reported this particular case for investigation.

    In the meantime, you can edit the photo URL through the Text Editor. Just change the “a href” portion of the code shown here:

    <a href="CHANGE THIS URL"><img class="" src="http://agricultureproud.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/1452174_695477840471943_52921068_n1.jpg" alt="" width="478" height="377" /></a>

    I’ll let you know about future changes to this functionality!

    Not a problem! We’re looking to fix the issue that prevents you from being able to access the image soon.
