Title: CKEditor Last modified: October 8, 2017 --- # CKEditor * Resolved [fossfolks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fossfolks/) * (@fossfolks) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ckeditor-4/) * I use CKEditor and have found that this plugin only works when I disable it in favor of the default WordPress editor (TinyMCE?) * I saw someone else had the same issue over here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/creating-shortcode-please-wait/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/creating-shortcode-please-wait/) * and that it was marked as resolved, but I’m still having the trouble. I enter a keyword and hit search, and get nothing. As I said, it works fine with the default editor, but for a few reasons I have to use CKEditor.

Just one question, is the issue being faced by you is only for Product link template(when you select your text and then hit Search button)?

We have identified the root cause and will fix the same in next release. Until then, you have to use TinyMCE editor only.

Did you mean it was coming out in this release, or the next bigger one (like, 1.5.x)? * Plugin Author [Amazon Associates Link Builder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amazonlinkbuilder/) * (@amazonlinkbuilder) * [8 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ckeditor-4/#post-9637021) * Dear [@fossfolks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fossfolks/), * Apologies for the inconvenience, but we discovered further integration issues while solving for the integration with CKEditor. Part of the reason is the fact that the CKEditor plugin for WordPress is [not in active maintenance](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ckeditor-for-wordpress) any longer. We will continue to explore further opportunities to complete the integration with CKEditor, but would like to request you to please use the default editor (TinyMCE) for now.
