Hmm, this doesn't look like an easy task to achieve with just a hook, although I could be wrong. I can point you towards the files you can investigate if it helps? If you go to wp-includes/media-template.php, there is code that generates the "edit image" button there. In wp-includes/media.php, it calls the media-template.php file to be used. Hope it helps as a starting point at least! Also just a gentle reminder not to edit these files, but to use them to formulate your own solution. Good luck!– RachieVeeCommented Aug 28, 2015 at 16:40

you mean I have to do some kind of monkey patching?. Do you have any specific recommend. Thank you very much– KKND_BLACKCommented Sep 1, 2015 at 10:29

I'm not sure what you mean by monkey patching haha but I'm honestly not sure of the exact solution. I just know it doesn't appear it's as simple as using a hook to add a button, but I could be missing something - hence why I pointed you to those files. I also know the media library runs on Backbone so doing some research in that area may help as well. Good luck!– RachieVeeCommented Sep 2, 2015 at 22:00

1Perhaps if you describe what you intend the button to do, we could maybe help with alternative ways to do it? Or you could look at wordpress.org/plugins/yoimages. It adds a 'edit crop formats' button - possibly with javascript– anmariCommented Jun 29, 2018 at 1:12

Thanks, I want to add a button there and execute some code onClick without hacking at the core.– LumberHackCommented Jul 4, 2018 at 10:35

I would recommend that you begin by having a look at a question asked more recently here.
The best option would be to create a custom plugin so that the WP core doesn't get affected. Editing core files is never a good idea, plus you would lose any changes when updating WP.
