Insert link button doesn't create a link in visual editor
-
I’m doing the following:
1. Highlight a word
2. Click the “Insert Link” button in the visual editor
3. Dialogue comes up, enter link, with or without additional title
4. Submit
5. 90% of the time nothing happens, ie the popup dialogue closes but no link is created. Intermittently if I repeat this process 2-5 times the link will be created.My website address is: http://www.greenrenovation.com.au/
Things I’ve tried:
1. Disabling all plugins (currently so)
2. Switching to a default theme (no change, since reverted back)
3. Clearing all cookies from my browser cache
4. Using a different computer that has never previously been used to edit the site.
5. Reinstalled version 4.1 via the “Re-install Now” button on the WordPress Updates page within WP-Admin.
5. Running the JavaScript console. This shows an error (pasted below) which 100% correlates with the insert link function not working. The infrequent cases where the link creation works this error is not reported.Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘nodeType’ of nulltinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:4 walktinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:6 dtinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:6 ytinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:7 C.mceInsertLinktinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:6 vtinymce.min.js?ver=4107-20141130:9 N.execCommandload-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=hoverIntent,common,admin-bar,heartbeat,autosave,wp-ajax-response,jquery…:885 wpLink.mceUpdateload-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=hoverIntent,common,admin-bar,heartbeat,autosave,wp-ajax-response,jquery…:885 wpLink.updateload-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=hoverIntent,common,admin-bar,heartbeat,autosave,wp-ajax-response,jquery…:885 (anonymous function)load-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils,plupload,json2&ver=4.1:3 m.event.dispatchload-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils,plupload,json2&ver=4.1:3
I’ve searched google extensively for the symptoms and error message above but haven’t been able to locate an answer.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
