@Webdongle: did you remember to choose the correct set? It's working fine for me.

@dido: here's a step by step:
- First: go to Global Config -> Text filters, and make sure that for your user group (probably Super User?) filtering is set to "no filter".
- Then go to Extensions -> Plugins -> TinyMCE, and choose the set for your user group (for Super Users, that's usually Set 0).
- Scroll down and switch "use joomla text filters" on.
- Save and close.

@Jaydot
I selected the correct set and removed 'script,applet,iframe' but upon save the 'script,applet,iframe' reappeared. Also tried it with another set but that failed to save the changes as well.

Never tried with 'use joomla text filters' set on.

Question still stands as to why changes to the Tinymce removing 'script,applet,iframe', are not saved ?

Ah, I remember struggling with that before I discovered (and embraced

) "use text filter", but I usually got it to work eventually - not just by removing script etc., but also by adding script etc. als valid elements and even as extended valid elements for good measure. I was never really sure what made it work in the end

.
Can't test it, because I removed the prohibited elements before discovering "use text filter" and they are still removed, see image. I never typed "empty", by the way, it was there when I switched "use text filter" off.

seems like this settings still not allow paste TS code as 'href' value.
but if you paste code in 'rel' tag it will be ok.
so most easiest way is switch editor to "No editor" in user preference.

Problem with that is if you switch to Tinymce (for another edit) and open that one again then it gets stripped again.

I know, but still it's better than edit text in database.

Webdongle · Post by **Webdongle** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:05 pm

Better still the option proposed by Jaydot

effrit · Post by **effrit** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:10 pm

did you try read what i wrote?

how can it be better if it didn't work?

Jaydot · Post by **Jaydot** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:20 pm

Effrit, please see my first post in this thread. Works perfectly.
(My second post was a reply to Webdongle's question about TinyMCE not saving removed elements).

effrit · Post by **effrit** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:30 pm

Jaydot, did you try paste code as href value?
i cant make it worked.

<a href="https://www.w3schools.com">Visit W3Schools!</a> this the example for hyperlinks

Jaydot · Post by **Jaydot** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:39 pm

Oops. I tested with the OP's code and I also have problems...
Is that code valid html??

effrit · Post by **effrit** » Tue May 22, 2018 8:50 pm

i am not sure if TS use right method (i don't remember if i saw code in href before) but still Tiny have special filter for href so disable editor in only 'native' solution i can suggest.

Jaydot · Post by **Jaydot** » Tue May 22, 2018 9:10 pm

Ah, TS is Topic Starter, that took me a while to understand

.

I'm not a coder, so I have no idea how to href javascript code.
I know I can use href for url's without any problem.
I tried removing the space between java and script, but that didn't work. I suspect the code is not valid, because TinyMCE will ruthlessly strip invalid code.

I wonder if the TS is still following this, and if so, if he tested his code using "no editor"...

Webdongle · Post by **Webdongle** » Tue May 22, 2018 10:03 pm

Code: Select all

java script:gaOptout()

Isn't a valid url for a link

Jaydot · Post by **Jaydot** » Wed May 23, 2018 9:03 am

Exactly.
However, when using a valid javascript url, the href gets stripped as well (I found an example on https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_href.asp, but pasting it in this post gets blocked by the forum).
Apparently, this is because
https://www.tinymce.com/docs/configure/ ... cript_urls

I haven't figured out how/where to change this, though

. Hints are welcome!

JCE editor(when configured) doesn't strip the code. If you use it suggest you setup a profile for SU.
