 Hi Friends,
 I just made some links on the proposed new animation page that I've 
 been working on, and saved the page.  But something went wrong, and not all 
 the links worked.  (When I clicked on the links, on the saved page to test, 
 nothing happened.)
 So I went back into the editor and used right-click  Edit Link. 
- That's possible, but better choose 'Edit Plugin' (see below). You
could also just double-click on the link in the text editor.
 But it does not show the URL, 
- Do you mean the URL field is empty?
Which links does this concern?
The 'internal' links can only be seen in the dropdown. For those it is
normal that there is nothing in the URL field.

 so I can't get any idea what I did wrong.  All 
 I could do was re-create the link, and hope it worked the 2nd time.  But not 
 knowing what I had done wrong, theoretically it could have gone on like that 
 forever!
- Just ask, like you did now ;)
 Will there be any way to have the URL displayed somewhere from the 
 django editor?  I can always close out the editor, and use my browser to see 
 what it was showing as the URL.  But it might not have been the URL that was 
 the problem.  I really don't know what the problem was, in this case, 
 because I didn't think of using the browser the first time.  I just 
 re-created the links, and now they do work.
- I usually have the original version open in a second tab...
 When I use Edit Link, the first thing that shows is a small dropdown 
 menu with 3 options.  When I choose URL, it shows me Procol dropdown and a 
 URL field that's blank.  
- Aaaah, now we get to it. Use 'Edit Plugin', not 'Edit Link'. It's a
link plugin you inserted, so a link plugin needs to be edited.

 So if we have to use CMS Plugins  Link to correct 
 a broken link, why bother having Edit Link in the context menu at all?
- That's a good question. The editor offers some additional options for
setting properties of the link via 'Edit Link' (never tried if they
work!), but the wording is a bit inappropriate - it seems supposed to
mean 'Edit additional link properties', not 'Edit URL' ;) Maybe that was
just too long...

If you have 'non-plugin' links, those can be edited via 'Edit link',
also their URL, as one would expect.

Regards,
 Maren

 Thanks for your help :-)

Ooohh, Edit Plugin.  Yes that works just fine!

That solves my problem.

Thanks again,
