Unlink option missing in Links panel in Indesign 2023

[Dibevo36]

What happened to the Unlink option in the Links panel in Indesign 2023? It's gone! I use that to detach text files (Word). All I can do now is link to a new document, but that's not what I want. I want to detach the text and use the formatted page for a new text. I work with the WordsFlow plugin by the way. Maybe that will clarify what I mean.

If you want Unlink available for a Word file you need to check the Create Links When Placing Text and Spreadsheet Files in Preferences > File Handling.

Is your screenshot InDesign 2023? It’s different from my Links panel.

[Steve Werner]

Yes, I made a new screen shot that includes to title bar "InDesign 2023"

It looks the same in InDesign CC 2022 (look at the title bar again):

I don't have WordsFlow installed. Maybe turn that off?

Did you look under Wordsflow in the Links Panel menu?

[Steve Werner · Accepted solution]

Yes, it looks like using Wordsflow must rearrange the menus so you don't find what you're expecting.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. WordsFlow turned out to be the culprit. I uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin and it works again!
