TinyMCE Shortcode button fix

Hi,

I fixed the issue with the shortcode button in the visual editor for newer wordpress versions. I hope Will Zachmann could implement it in the next version 🙂

There are other issues that come with the visual editor (TinyMCE) because the functions get updated sooner or later and break older plugins. I just focused on the issue with the shortcode insert button.

Open the shortcode-exec-php-class.php in the plugin-folder and scroll to this js-part (about line 1189):

$('#scep-tinymce-form').submit(function() {
    if (window.tinyMCE) {
        window.tinyMCE.execInstanceCommand('content', 'mceInsertContent', false, '[' + $('#scep-tinymce-shortcode').val() + ']');
	tinyMCEPopup.editor.execCommand('mceRepaint');
	tinyMCEPopup.close();
    }
    return false;
});

Change it this way and save it:

$('#scep-tinymce-form').submit(function() {
    if (window.tinyMCE) {
        if (tinyMCE.majorVersion>="4") {
            window.tinyMCE.execCommand('mceInsertContent', false, '[' + $('#scep-tinymce-shortcode').val() + ']');
        } else {
            window.tinyMCE.execInstanceCommand('content', 'mceInsertContent', false, '[' + $('#scep-tinymce-shortcode').val() + ']');
        }
        tinyMCEPopup.editor.execCommand('mceRepaint');
	tinyMCEPopup.close();
    }
    return false;
});

That’s all 😉
