I decided I might as well just get it done. So I copied the page to Word then deleted it and opened a new page and reinserted the old material. It could now be edited in the new editor and I could select the link option in the simple slider-switch of the new editor. All the links now work well.

I decided not to report the bug.

Thanks for your help.

I tried the approach you describe but it still does not open in a new tab.
I am thinking that I might have to redo the page from scratch in the new editor but I am busy and I can’t do this right now. Is there some way of telling wordpress that they have a bug?

When I am revising the old material, although the editor seems to be the new editor in terms of the type format, the hyperlink procedure seems to be the old editor.
I do exactly what you say in the first procedure. I tick off the box for open in a new tab and then update. The link works but it does not go to a new window. Something is wrong!
The second procedure you describe works well for new material published under the new editor. No problem.

The more tag does not work when I access my webpage using many different devices (PC, Macbook, iPad, Phone) using many different systems (Vista, Windows 7, Android, OS7), and many different browsers (Chrome, Explorer, Safari, Firefox).

However I have found one Windows 7 system that correctly shows the read more. (And my own Vista system used to show it correctly until a few weeks ago).

My only hypothesis is that some security update for the operating systems might disable the more instruction set??

I can live without the more – but it would be nice if it worked.
