Link bubble menu doesn’t display URL and title field for new links in the Content Editor

Summary

The bubble menu to edit links in the Content Editor doesn’t display the Title and URL form when the link doesn’t have this data. This happens after opening the bubble menu for the first time and then trying to create a 2nd link. I also notice that I have to click the Cancel button two times if I type text in the Title field.

Steps to reproduce

See the videos below.

Example Project

We can reproduce this problem on any project with Wikis enabled.

What is the current bug behavior?

  1. The link bubble menu stays in an incorrect state after clicking the Cancel button.
  2. If I enter a value in the URL field, I have to click "Cancel" twice to hide the bubble menu.

What is the expected correct behavior?

  • The URL and Title form appears when a link doesn’t have a URL set.
  • I don’t have to click cancel
