TinyMCE WYSIWYG Plugin Feedback

This discussion is related to the Vanilla TinyMCE addon.

This is the initial version so it might be a little rough. TinyMCE is a tank! I'd appreciate any feedback.

Thanks!

    I've got the joie theme installed and v2.03 and this isn't working. I get duplicate instances in my "plugins" options and cannot enable/disable correctly and it doesn't show on the discussion pages.

    Make sure you apply this fix: http://github.com/dkobia/Garden/commit/db7a3187f7bb1ef1cf440c9a61b68d9c3336d891

    I've alerted the devs to it.

    I get the same problems. I use my own stylesheets.
    1. I've updated class.headmodule.php
    2. I see two entries listed for "Vanilla TinyMCE" in my plugins list
    3. The second plugin list item only has an enable button, which doesn't work
    4. I can't disable the plugin once its enabled
    5. I also don't see a "Remove" button for the plugin
    6. TinyMCE doesn't appear on any discussion pages
    7. I switched back to the default Vanilla theme and it still doesn't work
    Random feedback:
    • The 'Description' setting in default.php doesn't need anchor tags
  • zodiacdmzodiacdm ✭
    The duplicates of plugins in the menu, I found, is due to mis-matching names in the about file.

    I have the same problem as kevinobvious. (just to let you know :) )

    I've tried to enable this plugin too. But I've same problems as @kevinobvious . I'm not using any custom themes.

    i have only one Q. it seems that now that ived configured and its working perfectly, tinyMCE is kinda the second instance of how you can add a comment.
    now in any discussion I have above tinyMCE the default option to post a comment, and soon after I submit a comment above the wyswyg editor a new text box (the default one) is made visible as well?
    what can i comment disable in order to have only the wyswyg?!
    thanks

    People, just rename /plugins/VanillaTinyMCE folder to /plugins/VanillaTinymce (no caps for last 3 letters) and it works.

    Shame on windows-minded programmers )
  • rookierookie
    I can confirm that @allen's solution works.

    I have the same problem as Ebli.

    1. When i post a comment with Tiny, a new text box appears. So, i have a normal text box + tiny editor box.

    If you want to see it : http://uppix.net/8/4/5/0c12cbd4e4e2a341f2890c990b3da.png

    2. When this plugin is enable, the full screen youtube mode is broken (not particular plugin for youtube, just vanilla 2 base).

    1. When i post a comment with Tiny, a new text box appears. So, i have a normal text box + tiny editor box.
    This happens because of
    $(parent).find('textarea').show();
    in resetCommentForm() function at applications/vanila/js/dicsussion.js

    My file after editing :

    var parent = $(sender).parents('div.CommentForm');
    $(parent).find('li.Active').removeClass('Active');
    $('a.WriteButton').parents('li').addClass('Active');
    $(parent).find('div.Preview').remove();
    (parent).find('textarea').show();
    $('span.TinyProgress').remove();
    }

    Same thing happens after plugin réinstall.

    I downloaded this plugin, and I spent an entire hour wondering why nothing was showing.

    It turns out you named the JS file "tiny_mce.js" while in default.php you called it "tinymce.js".

    Can there be a simple version, my users don't need a word style toolbar, really just need things like link, embed, and img.

    I'm glad that helped you. But this plugin still has a lot of bugs that I don't have time to fix, or even know how to.

    1. A regular text box pops up ontop of the tinymce box when you click "Post Answer"
    2. The tinymce box fails to appear when you click edit when you edit a conversation with more than 2 comments. Vanilla uses javascript to create a new textarea that TinyMCE fails to detect.

    Can someone help find the fixes for these bugs?
  • AdrianAdrian Wandering Spirit Montreal Vanilla Staff
    yes blasef you are right. I am also having trouble now. I want to just add hyper link and image to simple mode. Does not seem easy to do... Unfortunately not many options right now for users...
