CKEditor Link Browser error

Post by bigwaver » Mon Feb 14, 2011 4:33 pm

I am trying to use CKEditor and CKFinder on Joomla 1.6. The editor works fine but the CKFinder Link Browser causes errors when trying to select a page from the Link Browser tree. The tree does not appear to construct itself correctly as it duplicates tree items under different parents. Also when selecting a tree item the errors are always the same, it produces multiple occurrances of:

Undefined property: stdClass::$nameError in line 63 of file C:\\wamp\\www\\test.domain.org\\plugins\\editors\\ckeditor\\plugins\\linkBrowser\\extensions\\links\\joomlalinks\\menu.php

and

Undefined property: stdClass::$nameError in line 90 of file C:\\wamp\\www\\test.domain.org\\plugins\\editors\\ckeditor\\plugins\\linkBrowser\\extensions\\links\\joomlalinks\\menu.php

I've searched extensively for reports of a similar issue without success, does anyone have any ideas what the problem may be?

The site is running:
PHP 5.2.9
MYSQL 5.0.51a community
Windows Apache 2.2.11
Joomla 1.6.0 Stable

Thanks

Hello,
I just downloaded the extension and installed it in J1.6.1

I wanted to add this plugin found here:
http://cksource.com/forums/viewtopic.ph ... it=[youtube]

I downloaded the file and unzip it in the plugins directory called ckeditor/plugins/[youtube]

In the editor configuration in the backend, I have added this code:

config.extraPlugins = '[youtube]';
CKEDITOR.config.toolbar_custombar = [
['Source','-','[youtube]','-'],
]

config.toolbar = 'custombar';

But I cannot get the [youtube] button to show up on the editor. I must be doing something wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Thank you, I am looking forward to this as I want an easy way to insert [youtube] videos.

This plugin is even better, since you can preview the video and resize it before you submit:

@checksum I checked JW Player plugin . To install it in Joomla 1.6 (in 1.5 it should works also) please follow:
- unzip this plugin to your joomla /plugins/editors/ckeditor/plugins directory
- paste something like this in Custom configuration field in Advanced settings tab in component configuration (please look at attached image)

Code: Select all

CKEDITOR.config.toolbar=	[['Source','-','Save','NewPage','Preview','-','Templates'],
    ['Cut','Copy','Paste','PasteText','PasteFromWord','-','Print', 'SpellChecker', 'Scayt'],
    ['Undo','Redo','-','Find','Replace','-','SelectAll','RemoveFormat'],
   
    ['BidiLtr', 'BidiRtl'], ['Form', 'Checkbox', 'Radio', 'TextField', 'Textarea', 'Select', 'Button', 'ImageButton', 'HiddenField'],
    '/',
    ['Bold','Italic','Underline','Strike','-','Subscript','Superscript'],
    ['NumberedList','BulletedList','-','Outdent','Indent','Blockquote','CreateDiv'],
    ['JustifyLeft','JustifyCenter','JustifyRight','JustifyBlock'],
    ['Link','Unlink','Anchor'],
    ['Image','jwplayer','Flash','Table','HorizontalRule','Smiley','SpecialChar','PageBreak'],
    '/',
    ['Styles','Format','Font','FontSize'],
    ['TextColor','BGColor'],
    ['Maximize', 'ShowBlocks','-','About']];
Hope this helps you.

Thanks, the added plugin works in the editor as I can see the button mow.

The problem is with Joomla, it strips all <iframe> and <object> tags which [youtube] uses. So the video is never displayed with the post.

I was trying to find a solution with this CK editor to post [youtube] video in joomla, but I could not find any that does not insert the <iframe> or <object> tag in the article.

You have to set proper values for users to text filters in article manager options (black or white lists for tags/html) . When you do this Joomla should allow adding iframe , embed and others tag to article.

Ok, thanks
Now it works....

Is it a big security risk to allow <iframe> or <object> for registered users through the editor?

I am using J! 1.6.1

Thanks for the tip. I did not know you could filter HTML tags in the admin area.
Good day!

Hi, me again :-)

How do I add the button to the basic editor so my registered users can see it.

Right now, I can only see the nutton in the admin area. When I go into Layout Setting, the button is not listed under Available Buttons for me to add it to the Basic Editor.

Thanks

Hi,
@checksum I will check this when I will have some time. In this moment there is no easy solution for this, maybe I have to make some fix/improvements to do this. Thanks for notice this problem. Please be patient I will give you an info after check this.
You cant try add some config for toolbars (full, basic ) in field custom configuration that I have mention in earlier posts. Please follow http://docs.cksource.com/CKEditor_3.x/D ... de/Toolbar

Hi,
@checksum I check and there is easy and ready solution to add buttons from plugins.
Please open config.ini file in joomla /plugins/editors/ckeditor directory. Add something like this to it

Code: Select all

[MediaEmbed]
pluginName = MediaEmbed
image = mediaembed/images/icon.gif
title = media embed

[jwPlayer]
pluginName = jwplayer
image = jwplayer/jwplayer/jwPlayer.gif
title = Add [youtube] video
MediaEmbed plugins is shipped with CKEditor extension and here is as example. After save this file you should see button from jwplayer plugin in component configuration.
Hope this helps .

Thank you.

It would be nice to add couple of google fonts to the editor font selection list.
I am running a blog site and would love to be able to have additional fonts from the google font library.

Would this be something easy to accomplish?

Thanks

Hi,
please look at http://docs.cksource.com/ckeditor_api/s ... font_names. You can add this settings to config.js (in plugins/editors/ckeditor) directory. Please try this setting and give an info if this works as you expected.
