How set defaults on wpLink()

2 Views

With WP 3.2, WordPress maybe has a new function to add Link-Quicktags to the editor. But I found an function to set defaults for the link-button:

Take a look at wplink.js Line 278.

    setDefaultValues : function() {
        // Set URL and description to defaults.
        // Leave the new tab setting as-is.
        inputs.url.val( 'http://' );
        inputs.title.val( '' );

        // Update save prompt.
        inputs.submit.val( wpLinkL10n.save );
    },

How is it possible to set the values for a custom value?

Is this possible and can you help me?

Thanks for an answer from an JavaScript Expert.

  1. Also an small example for change the url in link-button to use the url from installed blog. Use print JS in footer, not an include from js file via wp_enqueue_script() – ist faster vor development, specially for this small requirement, but not so on standard and fine, how the example from the other answer.

    enter image description here

    enter image description here

    <?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: Change URL in Link Popup
 * Plugin URI:  http://bueltge.de/
 * Description: Adds a domain link button to the post editing screen.
 * Version:     0.0.1
 * Author:      Frank B&uuml;ltge
 */

if ( ! function_exists( 'fb_add_quicktag_button' ) ) {

    function fb_add_quicktag_button() {
        ?>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            // change link on Link popup in TinyMCE and quicktag popup
            ( function( $ ) {

                if ( typeof wpLink == 'undefined' )
                    return;

                wpLink.setDefaultValues = function () { 
                    $('#url-field').val('<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>');
                };
            } )( jQuery );
        </script>
        <?php
    }
    add_action( 'admin_footer-post-new.php', 'fb_add_quicktag_button', 9999 );
    add_action( 'admin_footer-post.php',     'fb_add_quicktag_button', 9999 );

}

  2. Put the following in your functions.php; better is a custom plugin.

    add_action( 'admin_print_scripts-post.php',     'wpse22643_overwrite_wplinks' );
add_action( 'admin_print_scripts-post-new.php', 'wpse22643_overwrite_wplinks' );
/**
 * enqueue script
 */
function wpse22643_overwrite_wplinks( $hook ) {

    // register is important, that other plugins will change or deactivate this
    wp_register_script(
        'overwrite-wplinks', 
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/overwrite-wplinks.js',
        array( 'jquery' ),
        '',
        TRUE
    );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'overwrite-wplinks' );
}

    Check the path to the js file you want to include above. Then place the following code in the above mentioned js file.

    ( function( $ ) {

    if ( typeof wpLink == 'undefined' )
        return;

    wpLink.setDefaultValues = function () { 
        $('#url-field').val('http://example.com');
        $('#link-title-field').val('This works :)');
        $('#wp-link-submit').val( 'Use this link' );
    };
} )( jQuery );

    You can change the default values now.
