plone & fckeditor

> i would like to use the great fckeditor product with plone 2.05

Kewl. Zope ROCKS!

>maybe you can help me with some questions:

>* How can i change the starting folder in the "Browse server" menu of the image-toolbar?

Through the connector or filemanager dialogs. Easy or hard depending on skill.

>* How can i activate an image upload functionality in FCKeditor ?
>(i want my useres to be able to upload pictures from their local machines)

You can use any of the standard connectors. If you wanna write something up for python, go right ahead!

-ps are you the same person who mentioned using this with plone before? If not, you may want to search around a little, as someone mentioned it a few months ago...

(I think... I'm a fuzzy type o' dood)

well, i m a newbye in plone, and i ve been fighting for a while, trying to implement it in a plone site, the tutorial is pretty short ...
So I have to questions : does fckEditor work without any other server than ZOPE ??? (meaning no apache, and no additional library than the very minimal DEBIAN + ZOPE + PYTHON and nothing else (
appart g++ and make ???)
my fck editor displays an iframe of my own plone site...
Is there a way to avoid iframe, and implement Java code directly into my widget, did anyone tryed it ???
(soory for my aprox english)

I can't answer your ZOPE questions. Zorry. I assume it's pretty possible. JavaScript is JavaScript. Heck, macromedia uses a lot of it in their products. Kewl, neh?

At any rate, I think the iframe might be a necessity.

Like a speller and some more features for forums here at SF. ;-P

Maybe one of the z-velopers will pipe up- or in, here.

May the Force be With You!

ok - don't bother, i have find my own answer...
ok it works on a Minimal DEBIAN... (if it can help somebody else)
the trick was for me to force the conditional check for an externeal editor... to say yes... tal:condition "FCK Editor" == "FCK Editor"
because my plone site is custumized... and i do not allow the user to set his own preferences the way plone does...
The JAVA works pretty well without requiering IFRAME

Some answers (don't be surprised for my strange english ) :


> How can i change the starting folder in the "Browse server" menu of the image-toolbar?

- customize wysiwyg_support template or fck_config.js, you can do your own config js (look at FCK help)

> How can i activate an image upload functionality in FCKeditor ?

- For upload, delete, etc ... use standard Plone functions, i'm working on Plone standard xml connector for FCKPloneV 2.0 final


FCK.plone works fine with other Zope CMS based on CMF, ... Try the 2.0 fc non official preview version here :

FCK editor has been implemented as standard editor in Zwook (another Zope CMS). http://zwook.org/

Sweet! Thanks for the feedback guys!

Fred, you've done good, and I hope you are making some money right about now.
