WP 3.1 – Problem Insert/edit link Button

Btw, I both have the RB internal links plugin, and the TinyMCE advanced plugin, but disabling both doesn’t change anything.

that did the trick. Thanks so much.

Actually you only need to call wp_tiny_mce_preload_dialogs once. WP link dialog is already hooked to tiny_mce_preload_dialogs so hooking it again will result in two forms that are exactly the same.

Check out using TinyMCE editor in your WordPress plugin for more information on how to properly load all the necessary files into your plugin. (Shameless self-promotion, I know. I hope it helps some people though.)

This is a weird issue for me. It has happened since I upgraded to 3.12 and it happens when I try to use it most of the time. Ill highlight text, try to link to it using the insert link button, and when I click insert it brings me back to a blank new post screen. THat new post screen has a weird link that says this though:
https://www.mysite.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?_ajax_linking_nonce=865fd3788a&wp-link-submit=Add+Link

What do I need to do to fix this?

I’m going to overwrite most files for the 3.13 upgrade to see if that fixes it. I cant figure this out and it’s annoying.

Igneous, probably a JavaScript error somewhere.. Do you have some kind of debugger installed, what’s it saying?

Hey Guys -this may help as I was having the same problem as you. I had a plugin installed called TinyMCE Advanced. In the Advance Options on this plugin (near the bottom of the settings page), you can select Advanced Link. Enabling this overwrites the internal links feature in WordPress 3.1 and newer.

This solved my problem with the insert / edit link. The main reason why I use this plugin is that it has some easy insert table options.

Hope that helps some of you.

I had the same issue, and it was to do with WP SEO plugin.

By the way, what I meant to say in my previous post is that I “have” a plugin – TinyMCE Installed. Thi splugin solved the problem (didn’t create it). So if you have the insert / edit link problem try installing TinyMCE Advanced and check the Advanced Link Option at the bottom og the settings page – it just may help and save hours of struggling with code to find a solution.

TinyMCe does not help

You sure you installed The TinyMCE Advanced Plugin?

yep, I had installed from the beginning. It doesn’t resolve the problem

I was having this issue on a new WordPress 3.2.1 install, and what finally worked for me was to download and extract a fresh copy of 3.2.1, and then FTP the contents of wp-includes to the server and replace the contents of wp-includes.

I am having this issue. I have 3.2.1.

I my javascript console, I see this error message:
Object [object Object] has no method 'wpdialog'

I have upgraded WordPress a number of times. Unfortunately, I don’t have my original version number, but my original install was 1/26/2011. I just did a fresh install, and I don’t have this problem.

I installed the same plugins in my fresh install that I have in my other one, and the link button still works. I copied the wp-includes from my fresh install to my old install, and that didn’t fix the old install. So, I am still looking…

The buttons on the TinyMCE Editor look slightly different. I am wondering if I can update the TinyMCE editor for that.
