TinyMCE plugins

Hi, I have written several custom plugins for TinyMCE and I am trying to integrate them with TeamSite. The plugins function correctly when tested outside of TeamSite. I followed the directions listed in the documentation for integration and I am not having any luck. Somewhere I need to be able to add my new plugins to the valid list of plugins but the following code suggested in the documentation does not work. My plugin is never getting added or initialized. Any ideas?

IWTinyMCECustomConfig("custom1", "plugins", "global");

What version of TS are you using: 671 or 671SP1?
I don't recall if it was fixed in SP1 - but I seem to remember that there were some caveats about the use of TinyMCE as provided with the TS distribution such that things like custom plugins didn't work - however that may be based on something I read in these forums as it's not listed as fixed or broken in the SP1 release notes -- perhaps you should double check with IWOV Support before you spend too much time banging your head against a wall...

I am using SP1. I am guessing this does not work because the syntax set forth in the documentation is pretty straightforward and I have not deviated from it. As a resolution to this, I have hacked TinyMCE core to accept my custom plugins.

Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Im trying to install a custom plugin with tinymce. Im searching the location where to initialize the plugin. In which file should we create the tinymce.init()?
Im using TS 671 SP1

You said that you hacked the core and able to do it. Can you pls share with us, how did you did that?

Sorry for the late reply.

I don't really recommend doing it this way because it is not maintainable but what I did is I put my code into editor_template.js in themes/advanced which contains some of the core TinyMCE functionality. I couldn't get the plugins to work properly in the encapsulated method provided.

another way is to make your TinyMCE as a call out and then add all the custom plug ins you want. i have done it before.

I think you need to add an extra line at the bottom of your editor_plugin_src.js as described in the 6.7.1 sp1 appendix on tinymce in formspub dev guide.

I have tested with few existing and also with few customized plug-in and it works in my environment (TS 6.7.1 SP1).

These are the exact steps needed for creation of a custom plug-in and also to make the custom plug-in to work on TS 671 SP1.

1) Create a plug-in as specified as a example in the _template
directory .
2) Name the directory which holds the plug-in to the name of the
plug-in.
3) Add the line tinyMCE.addPlugin("pluginname",true); at the end of
the file.
4) Modify the following lines in the custom_config.js file:
a.
IWTinyMCECustomConfig("custom1","toolbarRow","hr,removeformat,visualaid,
|,charmap,zoom,inserttime,insertdate,pluginname"); // i.e. add your
pluginname at the end
b. IWTinyMCECustomConfig("custom1","plugins","pluginname"); //This
line may not be there in the original file and you may need to add it
5) Make sure your templating.cfg is configured correctly to bring
up the instance of DCR with TinyMCE

Once all these steps are done, you can have your plug-in visible and ready to use in the tinymce toolbar.

I realize that this thread is old but I'm wondering if anyone has been able to load a custom TinyMCE plugin through TeamSite. I've tried everything listed under the 7.1 Forms Developer Guide under the section: Creating Custom Plugins. I used the codeprotect plugin as a template and I have no problems getting this plugin to load and work outside of TeamSite. When I configure it in TeamSite using the following lines in my custom_config.js, it does not load and I see no errors indicating why this would be:

IWTinyMCECustomConfig("OFI-config","plugins","codeprotect");

I've seen a lot of posts in this forum regarding not being able to use custom plugins in TeamSite, none that say that they were able to get one to load without hacking TeamSite. Has anyone had any luck with this?

I was able to get a custom plugin to load, once properly configured clearing the cache did the trick.
