WYMeditor

Post by thugsb » Thu Dec 10, 2009 10:06 am

Hi,
I'm trying to get WYMeditor working in Joomla. So far, I've made it appear correctly and it is fully functioning on the front-page edit or submit. It's really quite simple...

Here's what I've done so far to get WYMeditor installed:

1. Set my editor (in Joomla admin) to No Editor.
2. Download it from http://www.wymeditor.org/download/
3. Copy wymeditor/ directory into httpdocs/wymeditor
4. Followed instructions here for Minimum Page Integration: http://trac.wymeditor.org/trac/wiki/0.5/Integration
I.e. I've added the following to /templates/mytemplate/index.php

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="wymeditor/jquery.wymeditor.pack.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
    jQuery(":submit").addClass("wymupdate");
    jQuery("#text").wymeditor();
});
</script>
However, I'm also trying to get it to work along with Ankit's Frontend Editor found here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ssion/9838
I've worked out that I need to add code to /templates/mytemplate/html/com_content/article/form.php, and have tried adding this to the end of the file (as the iframe doesn't load these scripts automatically):

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript" src="/media/system/js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/wymeditor/jquery.wymeditor.pack.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery(":submit").addClass("wymupdate");
	jQuery("#text").wymeditor();
</script>
However, clicking submit puts me on a Error 500 page, and at this point I fail. Any ideas?
Thanks,
thugsb

I'm not sure what I changed, but now I'm not getting error 500. Instead, the article page loads inside the iframe and the article changes did not take effect (it didn't save).
Any ideas?

Of course, it would be nice to get this to work as a plugin, but I wouldn't know how to go about it! If anyone knows what to do and wants to help, PM me. Thanks,

I'm afraid I've given up on this project. Hopefully someone will pick it up in the future and getting it working properly. Good luck when you do!

Have someone got this to work? I have given up all wysiwyg editors... They don't fit my needs. A native implementation of VYMeditor had been really nice!

I'm afraid I didn't try to do any more work on it. I eventually went back to JCE, which is fairly nice and can be fully customized at least. But eah, WYMeditor would be great. :(
