How to install FCKeditorX?

[ggjj]

I tried to install FCKeditorX and when I try to upload the XML file through the modules page, it just says "error 500- internal server error". How do I get around this? is there any other way to install it?
Thanks

You can install by FTP - download the archive from the forge, extract it, upload the files to the modules directory in your CMSMS installation.

you can download a modified version of FCKEditor, which contains mp3-player, flv-player and lightbox-integration at

http://www.webdeerns.de/demos/cmsmadesi ... eturnid=75


this package contains also a really useful readme.txt!

here the text which may help you even when you do not use that version:

especially #9 is very important!!!!

How to install:


1.  Extract the content of the zip into a temporary folder at your harddisk

2. Connect to your webspace with FTP-programme.

3.  create a subfolder of your modules-folder at the server: "FCKeditorX"
    so you will get this structure:
   
    your CMSMadeSimple Root/modules/FCKeditorX

4.  copy everything from this ZIP except the folder "slimbox" into your folder "modules/FCKeditorX"

5. upload the folder "slimbox" into the "lib"-folder of CMSMadeSimple

6. in the Backend, go to Extensions / Modules and activate the editor

7. give the permission to use the editor to the users, you want to

8. Define FCKEditor as your editor.

9. open the FCKEditor configuration and define the width and height of the editor-area, as the
  "default" - value is wrong, a good value could be width= 600 and height = 500

10. add the following lines to the -part of your template:

   
   
   

11. Check the possibilies of the FLASH- and MP3-Plugin as well as the lightbox-feature and the PDF-feature:

  - to upload and link to PDF-files, write your linktext, mark it, open the link-dialogue, activate "Upload",
    upload the PDF-file and confirm
    the link to the PDF-file will be set
 
  - to use Lightbox:
    prepare a small version and a normal version of the image you want to present by LightBox
    activate the "insert images" - dialogue and upload the small version, which will be inserted in your text
    click on "Link" and enter the URL of the big image which you want to open in the lightbox
    if that image is not uploaded yet, you can do that with the upload-dialogue at the bottom of the page
    select "effect": Lightbox and enter a title for the lightbox-image
    Confirm with [OK]

  - test the other functionalities by yourself ;=)

That's it.
