Cursor hangs often
No directly Image upload
Some Buttons must cut

But it looks good and works faster as Tiny.

Cursor is a problem of security for Firefox i guess. On IE works good.

Sorry for "No directly Image upload" what you mean :(

For "Some Buttons must cut" i am thinking to manage from ADMIN PANEL a selection of all ICONS PANEL.

Just saw this module and I also love this WYSIWYG Editor. For another CMS System (Website Baker) I also did some research on how to implement this WYSIWYG editor succesfull.

The thing I am wondering about (as I have not installed CMS Made Simple) is the following:
  • Does your FCKEditor module works with the latest release of FCKEditor. As 2.0has been made final
  • Does the image/file browser which is available in FCKEditor works or do you need to do some customisation to get it working?

Another question about the FCKEditor module. I looked around on your testwebsite and the module is looking very nice. I love the way the how the 'Browse Server' for the Images and Files has been implemented.
  • Q: Would it also be possible to integrate (within the 'edit links') the possibility that you can browse the CMS Content - pages so you could insert links to other pages? I saw that a dropdown is available in FCKEditor which has choiced for: files, images, flash. Maybe it is possible to add 'pages' over there?

    Edit: On this page (on fckeditor.net) it is possible to test how the file browser works. As you can see it works with XML. Would it be possible to also create an XML output of the pages within CMS Made Simple?
  • Q: I also saw that you implemented the option to choose a skin for FCKEditor. Would it also be possible to implement an option to choose a toolbar? Would it also be possible to give different users with other rights an additional toolbar with other features?

This is great :)

However, the 'Styles' menu does not contain any of my Styles as specified in the CMS template. It only contains:

Custom bold
Custom italic
Title
Code
Title H3

The main reason I would want to use FCK is because the Styles menu actually shows you the color, font and size in the list. - TinyMCE doesn't do this.

Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way it is?

Thanks

If you would like to make different styles available for the the FCKEditor you are using in CMS Made Simple you can best read the following wiki article: Developer's Guide/Configuration/Styles as this has a good explenation about working with custom styles. It is easy to integrate as the list is XML based.

Edit 1: If you would like to add a custom css you need to modify the fckeditorX.module.php which is available in the module folder for FCKEditor. Over there you should place (somewhere in the document) the following code:

Code: Select all

		$oFCKeditor->EditorAreaCSS = $this->cms->config["root_url"].'/path_of_css_file/';
Besides this you need (as described above) also to change the XML file which contains the styles listed.

Q for creator of the FCKEditor module: Would it also be possible (in response to the earlier suggestions/questions) to add the ability to modify the custom EditorCSS  for FCKEditor through the module maintainance?

Edit 2: I did some more research about this functionality and read this topic on the FCKEditor forum. There you can find a 'CSS Parser' which will generate the XML file for FCKEditor based upon the CSS File. Maybe this is usefull (and maybe it could also be integrated in the FCKEditor Module configuration.)

Hope this information is usefull for you. Let us know if everything works!

Hi Megabob,

IMHO TinyMCE wins only because of it's CSS parser ;-)

I have looked into this a bit, because I would like to have a possibility that editors of the pages can make internal links to already created pages within the CMS. The first suggestion to integrate this in the 'Browse Server' is not the best way to implement this.

After looking a bit further it seems to be that a plugin needs to be created for FCKEditor (based upon this tutorial) and this plugin can e modified/created so that it will browse the CMS Made Simple database and generate a link to a specific page. Has anyone of you have ever created a plugin for FCKEditor and could help me out?

If you can get those 2 things working, I'll look into making it the default editor instead of TinyMCE.  Image stuff would be good, as well, but I don't know much about FCKeditor to even comment on that.
