{Solved} TinyMCE Flash? How do I add it?

[sarah_h]

Hi All,

I notice that I don't have a Flash button on my TinyMCE toolbar. I see that I have TinyMCE Basic, is that why? Or do I need the media plugin? If where can I find that?

Any help on this would be great as I want to add Flash to my content.

Thanks

Sarah

Thanks for the link, but this requires the {swf} tag to be hardcoded into the template, right? I'm looking for a solution so that the user can upload a swf to their content and I don't think they'd be able to do it this way?

I think what you're looking for is the TinyMCE Advanced module - it has the flash button on the toolbar.

Well, I did solve the problem. It turned out to be the 'Use TinyMCE compression module' in the tinyMCE Advanced settings. I read something about this a long while back and just tried it and the browse button appears and everything seems to work pretty good! So, thanks to the original poster who discovered this (sorry, I don't have a link to the message) I've no idea why this needs to be turned off though!

Thank you very much Nullig. I was looking for that too.
Worked like a charm for me.

Exactly where do you change this setting on the admin ?
I have TinyMCE 2.2.7 on the admin can't find such function.
I checked the tinyconfig.php file, but no luck either.

Thank you.

If you're talking about the ''Use TinyMCE compression module' option:

extensions -> TinyMCE Advanced WYSIWYG module -> Use TinyMCE compression module (secont checkbox down)

Thank you...
I have  Extensions -> TinyMCE WYSIWYG
on the following page http://www.smartleverage.net/admin/modu ... le=TinyMCE
I don't have such option "Use TinyMCE compression module"

these are the first four options.
Allow table operations
Strip Background tags from CSS
width of editor
height of editor

on the available modules "T"
only have TinyMCE  no advance option on any of them... the latest version there is 2.2.7 

I visited http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/tinymce downloaded and installed 2.2.8 on my CMSMS installation and same result.


perharps, I have to change something on the tinyconfig.php, but mine is set to use the advanced theme.

Code: Select all

  tinyMCE.init({		
	.......
  theme : "advanced",
			theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
			theme_advanced_layout_manager : "SimpleLayout",

perharps you can export the .xml module and provide it ?

Looks like you need to download TinyMCE Advanced. It's different to Tiny MCE Standard. Try that and see...

[jimeu]

Where do I get it from ??

my module repository url is http://modules.cmsmadesimple.org/soap.p ... itory  and it is not listed there.

I also checked on http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/softwarema ... rm_cat=323
and only tinyMCE is listed as well

please provide the url...

pd. what html editor is used on this forum ?

Thank you

I remember seeing that TMCEADV is no longer supported and I must have grabbed it just in time because it's gone from the Forge.

PM me your email addy and I'll email you a copy.

Here's a simple solution to that problem:

1. I have TinyMCE Basic 2.1 installed;

2. I downloaded the latest 2.1.x version of TinyMce from the moxiecode website and extracted the media plugin from the plugins folder;

3. Uploaded it to the proper folder on my cmsms installation (somthing like this: /modules/TynyMCE/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins);

4. Edit the /modules/TynyMCE/tinyconfig.php

look for:

Code: Select all

$plugins="cmsmslink,fullscreen,advimage,simplebrowser,paste,advlink";

add the flash plugin to the list:

Code: Select all

$plugins="cmsmslink,fullscreen,advimage,simplebrowser,paste,advlink,media";

5. Then in the TinyMCE WYSIWYG admin section just add the media button to the toolbar.

This allows you to embed flash, Quicktime, Shockwave, Windows media and real media files.

And that worked just fine with me
