Magento wysiwyg editor insert variable in static block not working

Question

When I use the editor in the CMS, I tried use the "Insert Variable" button in both show and high editor state and also edit html source.

I entered <a href="{{config path='web/secure/base_url'}}/abc">Link to Base URL</a>.

If my base url is http://example.com, it is supposed to chagne http://example.com/abc, but it shows me the same <a href="{{config path='web/secure/base_url'}}/abc">Link to Base URL</a> in the frontend, how can I successfully get the true URL.

P.S. I got something like this in the 'edit html source' button: <a href="http://example.com/index.php/admin/cms_wysiwyg/directive/___directive/e3tjb25maWcgcGF0aD0mcXVvdDt3ZWIvdW5zZWN1cmUvYmFzZV91cmwmcXVvdDt9fQ,,/key/68d29caa902f5d24dc08aa42aba1883e//denoate">Testing</a>, but in the frontend it still show me back <a href="{{config path='web/secure/base_url'}}/abc">Link to Base URL</a>

Try this way to add base url in your static block:

<a href="{{store url='abc'}}">Link to Base URL</a>

That should create a link to your store's base URL.
