Using the WYSIWYG removes URL in the description

[WebAdminGuy]

Hello. We are having a weird issue with the WYSIWYG editor when editing products.

If we select the "Show / Hide Editor" it will change our default code from:
<p><img src="{{media url="wysiwyg/Products/AudioQuest/audioquest.jpg"}}" alt="AudioQuest" /></p>

To this:
<p><img src="{{media url=" alt="AudioQuest - Record Brush" /></p>

It deletes the value in the "media url" and we are left with a broken image link.

Can someone assist us on this issue? It seems odd, but we can replicate it every time we use the editor.

Thanks.

Dale

Thanks for any help.

Hi @WebAdminGuy, seeing if I can find an update for you.

Hello. That would be helpful. This bug is really causing issues with our team who updates the products on our site.

Even if there is a work-around we could use until a fix is fully implemented.

Thanks, and I appreciate any help in this matter.
