Not showing in WP 5 block editor link suggestions

Hi, @thefiddler.

Thank you for reporting this.

If you’d like to test a fix for this issue, you can either:

1. Apply the one-line change here to the simple-urls/plugin.php file: https://github.com/studiopress/simple-urls/pull/13/files
2. Download the copy of the plugin here, and replace the current copy on your site: https://github.com/studiopress/simple-urls/archive/fix/show-in-rest.zip

I recommend taking a full site backup first in either case.

You should then see Simple URLs appearing in the drop-down when you add links to text in the Block Editor.

Hi Nick,

Thanks for getting back to me. I’ll try to apply it somewhere, when I have time. Lots to do. But if/when you push out an update with this in it, we’ll definitely update and use it.

Has this already been implemented?

Also, @modernnerd could you get us any insight on this issue: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/error-404-after-update-2/#post-11649757 ? It’s really negatively affecting my site, affiliates, and visitors. Would be nice to have a fix soon.

@thefiddler Yes, this is part of the latest version of the plugin. I’m seeing Simple URL links in the insert link popover now.

It looks like you’ve had a recent response to the other issue with a suggested fix to try. I’ll keep an eye on that thread too, though.

Awesome. Thanks. I had to roll back to the previous version to fix that other issue. But glad to know this is sorted. It’s the main reason I chose this plugin: makes it so easy to link to stuff while post writing.
