I’ve written a filter to wrap images included in posts with figure tags and their captions with figcaption tags. I turned off the visual editor so that it doesn’t strip out all the html from the images.
That all seems to work fine until I publish or update the post. At this point the link to the full size image gets changed to /sitename/post-type/post-title/attachment/attachment-title/
where before it was /sitename/assets/filename.jpg
Can anyone help suggest why this is happening?
Here is a link to the filter code on pastebin
The problem was down to my use of
rel="attachment"in the anchor, with this removed the editor allows the link to remain pointing to the file url and not the attachment.
