The way that E6 below looks to you (at least at this date) is alas! different from what I see in this editor. The Vimeo links in E5 (and earlier) were the old-fashioned underlined, blue-highlighted, hyperlink texts of the type you’ve been clicking on for decades now. But when I went to paste in the links from my latest Vimeos into E6, I found that WordPress had instituted a new feature, which involved creating a thumbnail and title out of the Vimeo metadata. Fancy! Except I learned later that huge blocks of wasted space got interpolated in what WordPress calls the “live” version. So on my creator’s screen, everything looked impressively perfect, but to the user it was an unsightly mess.
I have given them the intervening months to get the bugs out of this new bell and whistle, but it hasn’t happened. Here is my workaround. No more Vimeo links, unless this is fixed someday. (I told them that at this point they should just abandon the new feature; clearly it’s not needed: what’s good enough for E5 would have been good enough for E6!) I will create a document with any links, including Vimeos, compile a pdf of same (for universality), upload to Dropbox and link thereto here.
Roundabout? Indeed, but neatness counts! This pdf has the audio and video links for the whole of Akhtamar. Please do sample at your leisure, at least until such time as the work is mounted.
