'Add Link' Became 'Update'

    Just upgraded WordPress and there’s a small issue. When I click ‘add link’ on a post, the dialog box shows ‘update’ button on the bottom right instead of ‘add link’. Thus, when the ‘update’ button is clicked, it will update (update the post, not add link to a text) and exit from the post.

    Kindly help, thank you!

    Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    I’m having the same issue on a page. I select some text and click the link button. This usually works fine. If I cancel and select again, the linking window is blank and the Add Link is replaced by Update. Clicking Update kicks me out to post.php.

    Sweetmelody, what did you find?

    Hi Stimpyjoy, I remember that it’s due to plugin conflict, try to deactivate all the plugins and reactivate one by one to check which is causing the problem. Another solution is to clear your browser cache and cookies. Thanks! ☺

    Thanks Sweetmelody. I actually figured it out last night around 11:30. I meant to post my findings but I guess I got caught up in the delirium of a 15 hour day.

    Anyway, that did work for me. It turns out it was the More Fields plugin that was causing it. What a pain (and a last minute scare before site launch).

    Thanks again.
