MODX Evolution 1.0.5 and TinyMCE setup

    Hello,
    I’m using the latest MODX 1.0.5 evolution. I’ve noticed that when in edit mode with TinyMCE Rich text editor if I have a statement like
    <a class="customStyle" href="[(base_url)][~136~]">Photo Gallery</a>
    it will be stripped to the following when I save the rich text editor 
    <a class="customStyle" >Photo Gallery</a>

    href are removed. What do I need to change in TinyMCE to prevent this behavior? It used to work fine with MODX 1.0.4. Does anyone has the same problem?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

      In an effort to prevent TinyMCE from screwin’ with my code after saving a table in RTE mode, I used these settings recently (in the "custom parameters" block) :
      forced_root_block : 0,
verify_html:false,
extended_valid_elements : "div[*]",
verify_css_classes:false,
remove_redundant_brs:false

      Hope it helps,
      Matt

        Hi,

        the fact is you don’t need the base url in your href, actually it’s redundant [~136~] being a full url link for MODx
        .
        Have a try, when you set up a link in tinyMCE, you have a link list containing all the ressources, choose your photo gallery and have a look at the link syntax

        <a class="customStyle" href="[~136~]">Photo Gallery</a>


        something you could write without having tinyMCE erasing your href
