Wysiwyg

This is the working group to discuss and coordinate the integration of client-side editors in Drupal core.

Developers and maintainers of client-side editors (aka. WYSIWYG) integration modules and other interested people are invited to join in and share their ideas and participate in the current efforts to build a Wysiwyg API that seamlessly integrates with Drupal core.

More information on the current status of the module can be found on the Wysiwyg project page.

Live discussions on development and support happen in #drupal-wysiwyg.

The current status, progress, and roadmap of all efforts are summarized on a special page:

How to create a plugin for TinyMCE?

Posted by jerrac on August 31, 2011 at 8:29pm

My college uses a calender system that has some javascript code you can use to insert various calenders into your pages. Fortunately, the code is pretty simple, there's only one value that changes. So I figured it should be easy to create a plugin for TinyMCE that inserts some kind of place holder code into the page. Then I'd used HTML Purifier or a Text Format to output the code with the correct javascript.

So, how do I create a custom module that hooks into WYSIWYG and TinyMCE to do what I want?

I using Drupal 7 and the latest versions of WYSIWYG and TinyMCE.

Configuring wysiwyg / ckeditor

Posted by Diogenes on August 22, 2011 at 9:31pm

Firstly, I'm quite impressed by the wysiwyg module, having spent the better part of the last 3 days looking at the code and trying to figure out how to change the size of the wysiwyg window that appears. I thought I could just add a css file to override the defaults but that clearly does not work when the height property is coded inline. (D7, wysiwyg module, ckeditor library)

I eventually had success with hook_wysiwyg_editor_settings_alter() BUT it was necessary to either add this hook to an existing module or create a separate module specifically for that purpose.

WYSIWYG + TinyMCE - Any tutorial you wish!

Posted by fizk on July 21, 2011 at 5:38am

I'd like to start writing TinyMCE tutorials on TinymceSupport.com for developers and newbies. I'm not sure what topics to cover, though.

What tutorials would you like to see?

What stumbling blocks have you seen people face when starting out with TinyMCE itself or WYSIWYG + TinyMCE?
What platforms would you like TinyMCE to be tested on, and perhaps compared to against other editors?
What kind of performance tests would you like to see?

Formatting not working

Posted by Ziggy58 on July 16, 2011 at 5:27am

Hi all,
please forgive me if I'm not posting in the correct spot and if so could somewhere poitn me to the correct spot?
I'm running Drupal 7 on a test site and have installed the WYSIWYG module with CKEditor. The WYSIWYG is showing beautifully but no formatting actually happens when I hit save. No paragraph breaks, no headings will work either but bullets does work (go figure!)
I bet this is simply something in the installation I';ve not ticked or configured properly. Could anyone propose an ideas to help? I'd be very grateful.
Thanks,
Ziggy

Wysiwyg and image styles

Posted by prinds on July 13, 2011 at 11:53am

I have been looking for a good integration of image styles in wysiwyg editors, but so far I haven't found a simple and good solution for that.

So I decided to create a simple module, that provides a plugin, that makes a listbox/select in wysiwyg editors allowing the user to select a certain style for each image inserted in the editor.

Applying an image style simply changes the url of the image to the image style version of that image.

You can take a look at the module at http://drupal.org/sandbox/prinds/1214398

Managing WYSIWYG across many sites

Posted by proindustries on July 12, 2011 at 5:53am

Hey guys - I've got WYSIWYG installed on about 20-30 different sites I have some level of involvement with. Often when either there's a wysiwyg update, or a update with the editor I'm using (ckeditor), I'm stuck having to rebuild the wysiwyg profiles across those sites, and again select the buttons to display in the editor...

Is there a quicker way of doing this? I was thinking of creating a Feature but I don't think it will capture this level of config?

Signed,

Announcing markdownify

Posted by davideads on June 3, 2011 at 1:18pm

As part of my project for the US Department of Energy, I've released a module called Markdownify for work than integrates the Markdowify PHP library (convert HTML to Markdown) and provides a TinyMCE plugin that allows TinyMCE to be used as a Markdown source editor.

Check out the Markdownify module on Github.

Comparison of inline embedding modules

Here's a comparison of modules that allow inlining of content using Wysiwyg. It lists modules mentioned in the "Joint community effort on embedding/inlining content and media" issue. I hope it can give some overview. Please review and edit or suggest changes.

groups.drupal.org doesn't really allow for wide tables, so I'm also attaching a html version.

TinyMCE Image Linking Not Working in Webkit When Using the WYSIWYG module

Posted by jg314 on April 27, 2011 at 8:18pm

I am using the WYSIWYG module with TinyMCE (v3.4.2) and for some reason when I try to add a link to an image using either Safari or Chrome the link window clears the data and the link window reopens. The link is never created. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix the problem?

Thanks a lot. I really appreciate it.

WYSIWYG Specification: end-user's perspective

Posted by Mark Nielsen on March 22, 2011 at 11:08am

In the Why don't D.O. and G.D.O. use a wysiwyg editor? thread, I suggested it might be good to start a discussion on specifications for a coherant and integrated WYSIWYG user experience in Drupal. This naturally starts at a distance from the priorities of developers, but it's my hope that it's still useful for discuss the issue from the perspective of end-users and site-builders.

Why don't D.O. and G.D.O. use a wysiwyg editor?

Posted by mcurry on March 16, 2011 at 2:48pm

I notice that drupal.org and groups.drupal.org don't use a wysiwyg editor. Any insights as to why?

WYSIWIG editors and preservation of HTML whitespace / formatting?

Posted by mcurry on March 16, 2011 at 2:47pm

Hi, all. I'm tinkering with the wysiwig module and CKeditor under Drupal 6 at present, and I have a concern and some questions.

I've tried using wysiwyg editors in the past, but I have never been particularly happy with the results. My main concern is preserving the raw HTML formatting/whitespace in the node body. When I switch between the normal (non-wysiwyg) view and the wysiwyg editor (and back again), wysiwyg editors seem to trash the original whitespace formatting of the HTML (and I can't see any good reason for that).

TinyMCE external plugins

Posted by mathphreak on February 1, 2011 at 10:31pm

Is there a way to enable external plugins in TinyMCE? I know that http://groups.drupal.org/node/6559 says that Wysiwyg doesn't support external plugins yet, but there's got to be something. editors/tinymce.inc has a collection of plugins, so I thought I might be able to just add the After the Deadline plugin (http://www.afterthedeadline.com/download.slp?platform=TinyMCE) to that list, but AtD requires some extra variables, and I can't find where to put them. How would this be done?

Started with this post: Add editor: XStandard (+ other desktop/browser side plug-ins?). Add info & edit to get more structured. Researching for solutions eating lesser server resources, so a desktop/browser side plug-in might be the solution. I haven't seen another like (the quality of) XStandard. But then I found many other browser/desktop editors:

Custom EnterMode settings for fckeditor

Posted by nikhiljain on January 24, 2011 at 10:54am

Can anyone tell me how can I change my EnterMode settings for fckeditor (installed with wysiwyg module)?

I guess while using fckeditor module, the settings can be changed by going to:
Administer, Site configuration, FCKeditor settings, Advanced, Edit, Cleanup and Output.

But I cant seem to find this with WYSIWYG module.
Right now it enters p tag when I press enter.
All I want is that the editor inserts 'br' tag with EnterMode and 'p' tag with ShiftEnterMode.

Toolbar disappears

Posted by Anonymous on December 6, 2010 at 9:13am

The toolbar for the wysiwyg editor has disappeared and I have no clue why, or how to bring it back.
This first happened with TinyMCE, and I thought it was an issue with that module, so I removed it and opted to install CKEditor. Everything was fine until I undated my theme (a very minor update at that). Then the same thing occurred. I have made sure that i have the right permissions set and everything. I'm using Drupal 6.19 and CKEditor 6.x-1.2. Does anyone have any ideas?

giving up on WYSIWYG - Autosave to support CK

Posted by liquidcms on December 4, 2010 at 10:25pm

Not exactly what i said in the title; but just thought i would repeat a post i made in the CK issue queue as i have been hounded to add support for this editor into the Autosave project. Main reason for posting was that possibly the W-API guys would correct comments i make "against" their module in case i have misspoken.

WYSIWYG inserting internal links - I need an interface which is browseable and structured by menu/taxonomy

Posted by rukaya on December 3, 2010 at 12:38pm

I'm using the WYSIWYG module but I haven't actually decided which editor I am going to use yet but I am favouring either tinymce or ckeditor. I'm looking for a nice interface for allowing users to insert internal links.
