Hmm, that sure is odd - I just tried giving the RTE a spin in the latest Umbraco release (7.12.3) and I can't reproduce the issue. When I mark an inserted text and add an external link and save & publish the changes the link works as expected with a href attribute in the output etc.

Hi Cerls
Are you using a blog package? If so which one - Or do I misunderstand you? Then the issue is perhaps related to the package somehow.

Thanks for your help, Paul
