# Add insert/edit link functionality to front end tinymce

 * I would like to know how do I use insert/edit link functionality at front end
   tinymce added by plugin.
 * Before that I thought I can use WordPress’s tinymce by wp_editor() but, wp_editor
   not working on ajax call at all (tried everything but failed). Then I used external
   tinymce script.
 * I have added custom button on new tinymce,
 *     ```
       ed.addButton('new_link', {
               icon : 'new_link',
               title : 'New Link',
               onclick : function() {
                   wpActiveEditor = true;
                   console.log(wpLink);
                   wpLink.open(); //open the link popup
                   return false;
               }
       });
       ```
   
 * I also enqueue the script,
 * `wp_enqueue_script( 'wplink' );`

    Please help me to achieve
   this.
