Sorry, I have no official advice to give. Currently no WYSIWYG editor is deemed “good enough” or easy enough to implement reliably across heterogeneous environments, so we do not support one officially. There are a large number of discussions on this on the forum, the search function will turn them all up for you. Generally it boils down to personal preference, and whatever works for you. Just be warned, criterion #2 may be quite difficult to achieve.

A new jQuery plugin editor, markItUp looks interesting. I’m wondering if v.2 won’t have something there…?

Looks good. As to EE2, you know that all the information available at this point has been given, but we can all keep our collective breaths bated.

I’ve just been experimenting with remote posting using Windows live writer, it was easy enough to setup with the blogger api. Initially it saves the post live though, setting up the workflow to save the drafts would be better, for some reason the program didn’t want to allow “post draft” as it did on a Wordpress account I’ld also been toying with. Might be an option it’s a new wysiwyg toy anyways.

Man that looks sweet. How hard would it be to integrate this into EE right now?

Just guessing you’ld give the text fields a certain class or something like class=“wysee”, link all the scripts in the head section, maybe a small head snippet. That’s how easy jQuery plugins usually are, copy paste easy.
Pulling the code from this multi-instances demo, might do it.
I actually hadn’t played with the demo’s much even, I like how it displays the code visually, so it’s wyciwyg. What you code is what you get, great idea, forget the switching to code view, which sometimes wrecks a post if it crashes between switches.
Don’t forget to rid it of the demo’s callbacks, man those are annoying to the evaluation.

Yes I saw that markItUp some time back but I don’t think in the demos they have online that it gives out perfect code. I think you can however tweak the classes that it gives to items though so might be quite good actually.
This coming from someone who has always said that I would never ever touch these kinds of things with a barge-pole too 😉
I just noticed that when you changed fonts then it put a really weird font class in but I think as I said you can change that so all in all to me it does look pretty good 😊
Best wishes,
Mark

Markitup does look good. Has anyone been successful in integrating it into EE?
#11 / May 21, 2008 12:33pm
I’d love to see that too. With jQuery integrated into EE2.0 why not make this a feature request?
#12 / May 21, 2008 12:50pm
Feature requested!

Nice, this could come in very handy for SAF…I like the ajax preview feature. I still think that TinyMCE integrates better with filemanager and EE 2.0 looks great.

That jQuery markitup is nice, but it’s not a WYSIWYG by any means.
TinyMCE has been the best option for me, and I use a plug-in that adds upload/inserting into posts. Can’t remember the name of it right now. i’ll follow up with it though.
