New Extension: MX Tinybrowser (universal field for creating TinyMCE or/and MarkItUp textareas with TinyBrowser&LinkManager;support)

Thank you for the quick heads up.

TinyMCE you can add media files type by adding media plugin and media button.

That works great. What i really need is other files (.pdf, .ppt, .rtf etc.).

Found it!

It is done via TinyMCE’s Link-dialog.

you need to used TinyMCE link button for this. example of TinyMCE configuration:

tinyMCE.init({
    theme : "advanced",
    mode : "specific_textareas",
       editor_selector : "mx_tiny",
       elements : "tinyBrowser",
    file_browser_callback : "tinyBrowser",
    disk_cache : true,
    plugins : "inlinepopups,media",
    theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,underline,separator,strikethrough,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,bullist,numlist,undo,redo,|,link,unlink,image,media",
    theme_advanced_buttons2 : "",
    theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
    theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
    theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
    theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
       theme_advanced_resizing : true,
       width : "99%"
    });

Link - All files (.) Media - Media files image - Image files

add…

Great 😊

I feel I must be annoying. You may ignore me 😉

If I have several fields on the publish form that share the same config-file with

mode : "specific_textareas",
editor_selector : "mx_tiny",

all fields are converted to TinyMCE fields but their content does not show up although it’s there. Any way around this?

I fixed this issue in new version. Is not ready for publish, but you can download it

Tried it and it works. Apart from the fact that it seems to add the URL of the upload directory to the content of those fields.

EDIT:

Could have been caused by me switching between Standalone- and Editor-Mode. Shame on me.

What would be the proper setup with this plugin and LG TinyMCE? So far I just left the Global script empty and seems to work.

I just replaced LG TinyMCE with it. Why use both?

Ah OK thanks for the tip. I have it all figured out now. Love this fieldtype!

I was trying to switch my Custom Field images fieldtype matrix from “nGen File Field” uploader to MX Tynybrowser.

I’m getting the file name but not the url path

<a class="group" href="claroquesi_decda.jpg" title="" rel="group">

Anyway to process this somehow?

TinyBrowser has his own thumbs which will be creating after the first TinyBrowser start in Image mode. p.s. In case if is not help - just tell me and I recheck it.

Thanks for your reply. I updated my post as you posted this. I guess nGen doesn’t add the URL path in the same way. Could I run a mysql process of some sort to fix this?

1. You can used {tinybrowser_field_name:file_name} and create templates’ like for nGen.

2. If you decide to use full path, you can run the mysql queries below (don’t forget to make DB backup before this)

update exp_weblog_data set field_id_XX = concat(’URL',field_id_XX);

I’ve noticed another problem. When using pagination and when on anything by the first page the image paths are relative so the images break. I’m sure there must be a absolute path setting somewhere. I’ve tried document_base_url in the tinymce setup but that breaks the tinymce on the publish page.
