    Thanks for reporting this. On a fresh installation of Drupal core 10.5.1 with Linkit 7.0.8 I am not able to reproduce, given the provided Steps to Reproduce. Have you added any other CKEditor-related plugins, etc. in the context where you observed the issue? Can you reproduce on a "vanilla" installation of the "Standard" installation profile?

    The 7.0.8 release did include a change that removed some checking that definitely corresponds to the error you're reporting in the console, so I believe you that there is a problem and I believe we can resolve it by restoring some of the code in https://git.drupalcode.org/project/linkit/-/commit/3582746022e08364383f9...

    But I'd first like to be able to reproduce the problem so I can understand it. Notably, this is also not triggering issues in any of Linkit's automated tests.

    Thank you for your reply.
    Sorry, the bug was with linkit 6.1.4. I tested with 7.0.8 and the bug was still present, but I think some cache was still present or I tested on the wrong window in my browser (production instead of local test instance). I tested again today and now it works fine! Sorry for the false alert and thank you for your work!
