Thread:Extension talk:WYSIWYG/Conflict with simple url link/reply

It may be that your problem is caused either by visible link text (string value displayed) or then with the contents of page in general you were editing. Have you tried to empty cache of your browser? ...one of my cases was solved by this action.

I tested this with "simple" wiki page containing text and table and inserted link text http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki directly into page on own row (resulting link in wikitext will be http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki ). Browsers FireFox v28.0 and IE11 (11.0.9600.16521), same test with same page with same results:
 * inserting link and save: ok (link works, link name is displayed on page)
 * re-editing page with newly created link (without touching the link) and save: ok
 * re-editing page with newly created link also editining the link (=double clicking it) and then saving the page: link was ok, but visible text of it changed to "[1]"

It tried same test with more complicated wiki page with this kind of text: " kfkfkf fkkfkf huhuhhuhu jujjjjjaa hiihaaaa lslslsls lslslslls " (link was in the middle of text containing longer sentence) ...to my surprise there it works without problems no matter how many times I change between wikitext and wysiwyg, saving the page works fine as do re-opening the page for editing.

I do not know... I quess this kind of behavior is typical for wysiwyg editor, it is not 100% reliable when it switches mode from wysiwyg to wikitext and wise versa. Behaviour may also change based on what kind of text you have set as visible link text (f.ex Text_to_be_displayed ), or what kind of other contents you have on page.

Btw... which branch of #6 bundle of Extension:WYSIWYG#Download section you are using? ... I am using latest version from branch of "CKeditor_4".
