[wp-testers] Possible Bug in links functionality

[Ashish Saini]

Sure Brian,

I am attaching the db as an attachment. Let me know if you want me to upload
on a server instead of an attachment.

@John, @Rich Lets wait for Brian to figure this out.

On a side note - how do I search for existing tickets in Trac before getting
either here or filing a bug report there?

Thanks & Regards
