Image links not working in WordPress
I have been working on quite a lot of wordpress websites lately and have been finding it very frustrating that when I link an image to a particular page or website, the changes haven’t been taking effect.
I finally worked out what the issue is (and whilst really slow) it is actually fixing my problem. WordPress seems to automatically add in a default link to the source of the image. So when the image was clicked on you were taking to the image source.
I haven’t seen this in previous versions of wordpress and this seems to be happening only since moving to wordpress 3.1.
The manual way to fix the problem until the issue is resolved is to link your images as normal in your post, then manually update the link in the HTML editor. You need to edit the image source and remove the
<a rel="attachment wp-att-3434" href
of the image and replace it with
<a href
Whilst not the best way to fix the problem it will help temporarily.
Tutorial: Backing up your WordPress Website
One of the most common questions I receive is ‘How do I back up my database?’.
Unfortunately a small number of people do back up their websites. There have been quite a few cases recently where people have lost their entire website with no back up.
So I wanted to provide you with instructions on how to do this to prevent or minimise the damage if something goes wrong.
There are two steps to backing up your site;
1. Copying your wordpress files (this means your theme, uploaded media files and plugins)
2. Backing up your database (which includes all of your page and blog post content)
