0.8rc1 is out

Ted · Post by **Ted** » Tue Dec 28, 2004 5:14 am

Well, we're getting close to a release. Please test if you have some time. I know there are still issues, but I really need to make sure that the install and upgrade go smoothly for everyone. I'm hoping the remaining issues are all WYSIWYG related, but anything that does come up, please let me know here or make a bug in mantis.

Thanks.

Hi Wishy,

Just a few bugs found ....

Anything I put in the 'head tags' section is ignored entirely, doesn't show up in the generated page source at all.

I have TinyMCE installed and selected under 'user preferences' but it doesn't show at all in editing content.

In admin/style.css the color attribute in the body element is #D8E1E7 can't see text on white background, I changed this to #265980 (or #7197C7 looks nice) and can now see the text on the white background.

Looks like changes up to 1092 fixed the TinyMCE not showing problem. TinyMCE now has the problem HtmlArea had of using the body background-color in the editor. I use a very dark background and as a result cannot see dark text on a dark background.

WYSIWYG are a great idea, but what a pain those quirky things are.

Javascript and extra styles now work in the head tags if they are wrapped in {literal} tags.

The color change in admin/style.css works great. Somewhere the text became very very tiny though, I'll post when I check that out.

akrabat's bookmarks module works great in 0.8RC1.

Thanks for the quick fixes !

Thanks Again !
TinyMCE background color stripper works great.
The code that produces the tiny tiny text in IE6 in admin/style.css
is:

Code: Select all

DIV.adminformSmall TD {
	COLOR: black;
	FONT-SIZE: 70%;

In IE all the text sizing is cumulative.

The ibrowser plugin for tinyMCE is relatively easy to set-up and works great. http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/plugins.html

Couldn't find where to add the lines to add this plugin in 0.8 ?

The config.php in ibrowser would need to use the config urls from CMS config.php...

modules/TinyMCE/modulefunctions.php. If it works ok, I'll add it to the module in svn.

Greg · Post by **Greg** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 2:32 am

added this to modules/TinyMCE/modulefunctions.php lines 56 - 62
Those little commas at the end of each line are really important

Code: Select all

theme : "advanced",
theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",
plugins : "advhr,advimage,advlink,emotions,iespell,insertdatetime,preview,zoom,flash,ibrowser",
theme_advanced_buttons1_add : "fontselect,fontsizeselect,forecolor",
theme_advanced_buttons2_add_before: "cut,copy,paste,separator",
theme_advanced_buttons2_add : "separator,insertdate,inserttime,preview,zoom",
theme_advanced_buttons3_add : "emotions,iespell,flash,advhr,ibrowser"

added the ibrowser folder and contents to the tinyMCE plugins directory and it works !

Just need to change the paths in the ibrowser config.php and I'll have it fully functional.

I got the config.php working correctly. It's in svn now. Thanks for the help.

What is really neat is that you can have different directories identified
ibrowser config.php lines 40 +

Code: Select all

$tinyMCE_imglibs = array(
  array(
    'value'   => 'uploads/images/',
    'text'    => 'Uploaded Images',
  ),
  array(
    'value'   => 'uploads/images/greg/',
    'text'    => 'Gregs  Images',
  ),
);

They show up in the dropdown in the popup window.

This is on my local machine .. haven't moved 0.8 to my live site yet.

If I use the original ibrowser config.php and hard code the paths it works fine.

Line 6

Code: Select all

$tinyMCE_base_url = 'http://localhost/';

Line 20

Code: Select all

'value'   => 'WebSites/gregbloorcms/uploads/images/',

Line 20 is case sensitive on my windows XP setup.

Greg,

Is the modified config.php that I did working for you at all? It seems fine to me...

Greg · Post by **Greg** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 6:24 pm

I got the same result as Patricia - "Library doesn't physically exist" but didn't have time to test your modifications further yet, plan to dig deeper this evening. This could be just because I am running this on a local setup, may be different under Linux on a real web server.

Update to some tinymce ibrowser code here, Firefox fix etc.

forum

Ted · Post by **Ted** » Fri Dec 31, 2004 10:03 pm

I added the firefox fix, and also think I have the directory problem figured out. Please test it if you get a chance. I THINK 0.8 is ready for a release tomorow.

Thanks.

ibrowser now works !! Thanks wishy.
I don't use firefox so cannot test that, fix was for patricia.
