# Edit button link incorrect

 * The **Edit** button in the admin bar (and the **Edit this page** link at the 
   bottom) link to the wrong place when Frontier Post plugin is activated. There
   are no other plugins enabled.
 * With FE is disabled, my homepage edit link works ok and its url is:
    `http://
   my.site.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=2&action=edit`
 * If I enable FE then display the homepage, the edit url becomes:
    `http://my.site.
   org/?page_id=2428&task=edit&postid=2`
 * and when clicked, takes me to the post editor instead of the page editor.
    Note
   that page_id is the “page containing shortcode”.
 * I have uninstalled, reinstalled FE to no avail. I have deleted and created new
   shortcode page, still doesn’t help.
 * What could cause this to happen?

 * Note: I meant FP above, Frontier Post, not FE.

 * If you disable “Frontier Edit” in the Frontier Capabilities, the edit button 
   will always link to the backend.
 * If you keep “Frontier Edit”end uncheck “Can Page” in capabilities, you will use
   FP for post, but not for pages.
