Ok. I reinstalled wp 3.5 both manually and automatically. Neither worked.

I also deactivated plugins by renaming the plugins folder and tried posting and it still strips the image links out and replaces them with   The links exist on the live page but the editor removes them after updating the page AND when switching between the visual and text modes. So it strips them out in 2 ways.

I noticed that my OLD images that existed on the pages BEFORE upgrading to 3.5 play nice. As soon as I add an image and try to link it to a page it strips out the link and adds the  
The existing images with links still retain their format/links

Does anyone have any ideas?

Again, this only happens inside a div. If I just place an image on the page (not inside a div) and add the link it works fine.

I noticed my original post left out something:

“If you change over to the text editor it is telling me the links are no longer there and instead it is adding   outside the divs, before and after the divs.

I did read through the troubleshooting thread.

I am downloading a new version of WP and will try the manual install and see if that fixes the problem.

Other than that I don’t know what to do.

I even deleted Ultimate TinyMCE but that didn’t work.

Well it looks like I pasted the same code.

I will simplify it.

WordPress is taking my a href and moving it outside my div which is supposed to be a container for my images and link.

It’s also sometimes removing the link totally depending on if I switch from the text editor to the visual editor and back.

How would I know if it’s a sub directory install?

This is how I have it set-up:

Under general as:
Wordpress url:https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress
Site Address (URL): https://www.mydomain.com

The redirects were for old site pages that no longer exist but are still available on other sites or in search engines.

Does the fact that the file is ONLY in the wordpress folder and no longer exists outside the folder have anything to do with it?

Does wordpress know to use the htacces file inside the wordpress folder?

iso

I just removed the htaccess file, and added my redirects to the other htaccess file. The site works BUT I don’t believe my redirects work anymore.

Also i am getting this alert from wp permalinks:
If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isn’t so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file. Click in the field and press CTRL + a to select all.

My htaccess file is set to 777, so I don’t know why it is saying that. Also it already has the code in place.

iso

So, if I remove the htaccess file, thats in the html folder, thats OUTSIDE the wordpress folder, my site will still function properly, because the other htaccess file is in the wordpress folder?

The website loads for me.

Nevermind,it was tricky but I figured it out.

I removed the float and tried this, see below. (this may be an old school hack)I would be open to a better option if one exists.

CSS Container and float DIV

A common problem with the floating div element is that the floats’ container does not stretch up to accomodate the float. If you set a background image to the container div, you will notice that the float div appears outside of container.

The solution is to add an extra div element with clear: both after the floating elements. The element with this property doesn’t allow other elements floating upon it and so it will stretch the container to suit the floating div.

I currently left the page I posted with the float fix, so thats why it looks like it’s fixed.

I tried overflow hidden and it didn’t work.

If I do this it works but I’m not sure thats right.
.post-text{
background-color:#ffffff;
float:left;

}

All I want is to be able to do is float one div left, then float one right next to it, then under those two float another div left WHILE keeping all the content inside the .post-text div

I never ran into this problem before in wp but I never created floated divs inside the content area.

It just seems wrong to modify the content div(post-text) which is why I figured I should probably have wrapped those 3 divs inside a wrapper div inside the content div. Hope that made sense.

What I should have done is stuck to tables, but I didn’t want to use tables because I constantly read I shouldn’t but then I have to float stuff and then I run into problems. Sometimes this web stuff is so complicated just to do simple things it’s really annoying. So many rules/problems just to get 2 boxes lined up next to each other.

This is the problem I’m having:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2062258/floating-stuff-within-a-div-floats-outside-of-div-why

I will try the overflow but I thought I tried that and it didn’t work.

Here’s the page:

So something like:

.container_for_floated_products{

}

I just don’t know the trick to make this work.
width?
Height?

iso

That worked but my container is now like 50px wide and floated all the way to the right.

Was I supposed to contain the floated divs on the page inside another div?

I hope not because that means I have to go back to every page and add the wrapper div.
