# Can´t insert link image using advanced editor

* I just installed tablepress today 20 June, so I assume I´m using the latest version,
and I am using the latest version of wordpress. I have disabled all editor related
plugins. I am able to create and insert tables, and in the advanced editor, I
can instert an image that is in my media folder, but when I try to insert a link,
using the advanced editor, the URL box contains http:// but I cannot select the
box to add the URL, nor can I select the “description” box.

* Hi,
* thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
* Yes, this is known issue, that I haven’t been able to fix yet. There’s something
weird going on in the interaction between the Advanced Editor and the Insert
Link dialog.
* The workaround for this is quite simple: Please use the “Insert Link” and “Insert
Image” buttons that are directly on the “Edit” screen (and not those in the “
Advanced Editor”). The issue is not happening there.
* Regards,
Tobias

* Thanks for your prompt response Tobias. I tried using the buttons. The link button
allowed me to insert a link, but when I then click on the Imaga button, I get
the popup, and my images appear, but I can´t select any of them. I switched to
using the URL option and I can paste the url of the image there, but the “insert”
button at the bottom is greyed out and I can´t select it, nor can I close it
using the X. BTW: I´m using the latest release of Firefox.
Thanks

* Hi,
* you mean the “Insert Image” button next to the “Insert Link” button is also showing
weird behavior? Haven’t really seen that before…
If possible, I’d like to take
a direct look at this on your site. Could you therefore please create a temporary
admin account for me and send me the details via email (the address is in the
main plugin file “tablepress.php”)? That way, I can investigate this directly.
Thanks!

* Thanks again you should receive an email invitation. The site is ois.ednetb.com.
There WAS about 30 pages there this afternoon, but I messed up something so I
´m back to square 1. 🙁

* Hi,
* thanks for the account! I was now able to investigate this, and from what I can
see the reason for this is that the “WordPress Mobile Pack” plugin is adding
some CSS code to the “Insert Image” dialog, due to which the relevant buttons
don’t show.
To fix this, please try editing the TablePress file “controllers/
controller-admin.php”. In that file, change line 249 from
* ```
echo '' . "\n";
```
* to
* ```
echo '' . "\n";
```
* That should deliver a temporary fix until I replace the old media library with
WordPress’s new one.
* Regards,
Tobias

* Thanks Tobias.
* I found a workaround by just pasting the HTML directly into the cell. It´s tedious
and I was hoping to avoid coding, but it worked for now. I´ll work on the edit
later.
* Thanks for your help.

* Hi John,
* yeah, sorry for the extra trouble 🙁
I’ll try to think of other ways to fix
this conflict between the plugins for the next release.
* Best wishes,
Tobias
