WordPress 4.2 issues

I’ve contacted the plugin author with my fix so hopefully it will be applied to the plugin in an update.

@zoecorkhill I’m having trouble downloading it from dropbox 🙁 is there a mirror somewhere?

I’ve been having the same issue.

Kudos to @zoecorkhill for the updated version. 🙂

Hopefully we get an official update too. 🙂

You can also check this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpres-nofollow-link/

This plugin is in the official wordpress repository.
this means got to admin->install plugins->search for “wpres nofollow” -> click install and you’r done. the updates are completely automatic so no need to do something manually 😉

O.K. i ca stop it. no problem. i only postet it on every post, a user has a problem with the plugin. there are many different posts, so i postet it on every of them. if this is forbidden, i stop it. i don’t want to spam. sorry

no problem 😉 as i said, i only wanted to help, not to spam

Pretty sure you can do this without completely replacing the core wplink.js file (which is dangerous because of the issues discussed in this thread). This method uses some javascript trickery in order to call all the original wplink functions, but modify their output.

Here’s example plugin code specifically for the tinymce wplink replacement. Feel free to use it in your plugin:

nofollow.php:

// Add the javascript that extends TinyMCE plugin wplink.js.
function wplink_nofollow_enqueue_scripts( $admin_page ) {
	// Only load on edit pages.
	if ( 'edit.php' !== $admin_page && 'post-new.php' !== $admin_page ) {
		return;
	}
	wp_enqueue_script( 'wplink_nofollow', plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . 'wplink-nofollow.js' );
}
add_filter( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'wplink_nofollow_enqueue_scripts' );

wplink-nofollow.js:

( function ( $ ) {
	$( document ).ready( function () {
		// Add a function that inserts the nofollow checkbox in the wplink modal.
		wpLink.addNofollowCheckbox = function () {
			var html = '<br /><label><span> </span><input type="checkbox" id="link-nofollow-checkbox" /> Add <code>rel="nofollow"</code> to link</label>';
			$('#wp-link .link-target').append( html );
		}

		// Extend wpLink.getAttrs to include rel=nofollow.
		var coreGetAttrs = wpLink.getAttrs;
		wpLink.getAttrs = function () {
			var attributes = coreGetAttrs.apply( coreGetAttrs );
			if ( $( '#link-nofollow-checkbox' ).is( ':checked' ) ) {
				attributes.rel = 'nofollow';
			}
			return attributes;
		}

		// Add the nofollow checkbox to the wplink modal (on edit.php and post-new.php pages).
		wpLink.addNofollowCheckbox();
	});
})( jQuery );

Much simpler!
