 * Hi. I discovered this plugin before Christmas and had a little play with it, 
   and was quite excited.
 * However, I’ve noticed today that when inserting an image into a post via the 
   Media dialogue box, the ‘Insert into Post’ button has disappeared, and has been
   replaced with ‘Insert into field’, making it impossible to add the images.
 * I deactivated all plugins except Magic Fields 2, but the problem persists.
 * I have a couple of screenshots, but don’t know how to insert them into the forum.
 * Thanks.
 * Gavin.

 * I have the same issue… and noticed it a while ago. I was hoping it would be fixed
   by now. Any update on this?
 * Many thanks.

 * My fix:
    (Not totally tested, but it will probably get you quite a bit along 
   the way)
    1. create a copy of _mf\_admin.js_ called _mf\_media.js_
 *  1. in _mf\_media.js_ keep only the load_link_in_media_upload function and the jQuery
       function after `//load button for image media`
    2. in _mf\_admin.js_ get rid of these to pieces of code
 *  - in _main.php_ add the following lines of code after line 193
    -     ```
          if( isset($_GET['mf_action']) && $_GET['mf_action'] == 'media_upload' ) {
                	wp_enqueue_script( 'mf_media',MF_BASENAME.'js/mf_media.js', array( 'jquery.validate', 'jquery.metadata', 'jquery' ) );
          	  }
          ```
      
    - in _image\_media\_field.php_ change line 111 to `$link = sprintf('media-upload.
      php?post_id=0&type=image&mf_action=media_upload&TB_iframe=1');`
    - **A quick explanation of what is going on.**
    - For whatever reason MagicFields-2 was loading its js on all admin pages, so
      when you load the media uploader it modifies the Insert button with jQuery.
    - By changing _image\_media\_field.php_ you add an mf_action to the get string
      when MagicFields calls the media uploader.
    - By changing _main.php_ you enqueue the javascript (_mf\_media.js_ now) that
      changes the upload form only if the
       the mf_action=media_upload is set.
