TinyMCE Wishlist

Spellcheck! My kingdom for a spellcheck! I haven’t seen any of the regular spellcheck plugins on the 2.0 compatability list. WYSIWYG is nice, but without spellcheck it’s of limited use to me. I tried to use the Google toolbar plugin for spellcheck, but that inserts a lot of weird code into the WYSIWYG that I have to go back and delete.

Any suggestions out there?

I’ll try it, but editing plugins is somewhat new territory for me.

dbasulto,

the Indent button automatically converts to a blockquote for you.

TerranceDC,

It is very easy. You can use the Plugin Editor off Admin->Plugins. Here is what I am using.

if (isset($wp_version)) {
add_filter(“mce_plugins”, “extended_editor_mce_plugins”, 0);
add_filter(“mce_buttons”, “extended_editor_mce_buttons”, 0);
add_filter(“mce_buttons_2″, extended_editor_mce_buttons2”, 0);
add_filter(“mce_buttons_3”, “extended_editor_mce_buttons3”, 0);
}

function extended_editor_mce_plugins($plugins) {
array_push($plugins, “table”, “fullscreen”, “emotions”, “advlink”, “advimage”, “searchreplace”, “iespell”);
return $plugins;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons($buttons) {
return array(
“cut”, “copy”, “paste”, “separator”, “undo”, “redo”, “separator”, “search,replace”, “separator”, “iespell”, “charmap”, “emotions”, “separator”, “link”, “unlink”, “anchor”, “image”, “separator”, “removeformat”, “code”, “fullscreen”, “wordpress”, “wphelp”);

function extended_editor_mce_buttons2($buttons) {
return array(
“formatselect”, “bold”, “italic”, “underline”, “strikethrough”, “sub”, “sup”, “separator”, “justifyleft”, “justifycenter”, “justifyright”, “justifyfull”, “separator”, “bullist”, “numlist”, “outdent”, “indent”, “separator”, “forecolor”, “backcolor”, “separator”, “hr”, );
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons3($buttons) {
return array(
“tablecontrols”);
}

You need to make sure you add the plugins into the Tinymve js plugins directory.

I either need to become a programer, or stop being an early adopter.

Mike, I’ve tried the code you posted. If I just use the part for the plugins, it works fine.

When I add this

if (isset($wp_version)) {
add_filter("mce_plugins", "extended_editor_mce_plugins", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons", "extended_editor_mce_buttons", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_2", extended_editor_mce_buttons2", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_3", "extended_editor_mce_buttons3", 0);
}

I get the following error message.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /usr/www/users/terrance/wp-content/plugins/advacned-wysiwyg.php on line 17

So, I revert back to the original plugin code, then add the plugins for TinyMCE. I have all the buttons now, but I have no idea how to get them on separate rows instead of all in one.

At present, this is what I have in the plugin editor.


if (isset($wp_version)) {
add_filter("mce_plugins", "extended_editor_mce_plugins", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons", "extended_editor_mce_buttons", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_2", "extended_editor_mce_buttons_2", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_3", "extended_editor_mce_buttons_3", 0);
}

function extended_editor_mce_plugins($plugins) {
array_push($plugins, "table", "fullscreen", "iespell");
return $plugins;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons($buttons) {
return array(
"formatselect", "bold", "italic", "underline", "strikethrough", "separator",
"bullist", "numlist", "indent", "outdent", "separator",
"cut", "copy", "paste", "undo", "redo", "separator", "wphelp");
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons_2($buttons) {
return array(
"justifyleft", "justifycenter", "justifyright", "justifyfull", "separator", "link", "unlink", "anchor", "image", "hr", "separator");
// Add buttons on the second toolbar line
return $buttons;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons_3($buttons) {
return array(
"table", "sub", "sup", "forecolor", "backcolor", "charmap", "separator", "code", "fullscreen", "wordpress");
// Add buttons on the third toolbar line
return $buttons;
}
?>

This is what my WYSIWYG editor bar looks like:

Recopied and repasted your code, with the above correction.

Got this.

I’ve spent the last two hours or more trying to make this work. To be honest, I’d rather have spent that time writing a post or something. It’ll probably take me hours more to get it to work, if at all, given my skill level with the programmming involved.

I think it’s best I give up until someone makes it easy for a non-programmer to do it. As it stands now, I’ll probalby delete the plugin and try to get my WYSIWYG editor back to its original state at intallation. If I can do that, I may be able to jerryrig a spellcheck some other way. I think it will mean reverting back to an older version of Firefox and using an extension.

If there’s anyone on the WordPress development team reading this, I’d like to suggest making the iespell plugin for TinyMCE an included part of the WP installation. It would add a lot of extra value to the

Well, almost.

I tried it again. But this time a shift+refresh was what it took to get the rows of buttons to show up. I now have an entire array of features. Except spellcheck, which is what I wanted most. For some reason, the spellcheck button doesn’t show up. Of course, I don’t know what’s wrong. I’ve uploaded the plugin to the TinyMCE directory in wp-includes/js.

If I’m reading the plugin correctly, it’s supposed to show up on the top row. Right after the search-replace button. But it ain’t there.

This is now what the plugin code looks like.

if (isset($wp_version)) {
add_filter("mce_plugins", "extended_editor_mce_plugins", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons", "extended_editor_mce_buttons", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_2", "extended_editor_mce_buttons2", 0);
add_filter("mce_buttons_3", "extended_editor_mce_buttons3", 0);
}

function extended_editor_mce_plugins($plugins) {
array_push($plugins, "table", "fullscreen", "emotions", "advlink", "advimage", "searchreplace", "iespell");
return $plugins;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons($buttons) {
return array(
"cut", "copy", "paste", "separator", "undo", "redo", "separator", "search,replace", "separator", "iespell", "charmap", "emotions", "separator", "link", "unlink", "anchor", "image", "separator", "removeformat", "code", "fullscreen", "wordpress", "wphelp");
return $buttons;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons2($buttons) {
return array(
"formatselect", "bold", "italic", "underline", "strikethrough", "sub", "sup", "separator", "justifyleft", "justifycenter", "justifyright", "justifyfull", "separator", "bullist", "numlist", "outdent", "indent", "separator", "forecolor", "backcolor", "separator", "hr", );
return $buttons;
}

function extended_editor_mce_buttons3($buttons) {
return array(
"tablecontrols");
return $buttons;
}
?>

I think I got it right. According to the TinyMCE documeantion, the button for ispell has the same name as the plugin. I keep moving it around, saving the plugin, going to the write screen and doing a shift+refresh. I even cleared my cache just in case. Nothing. Do I need to do more than add it in the advanced_edit plugin? Do I have to edit tinymce.js too? And how do I do that without breakin it?

I can’t see what’s wrong, any more than I can see why it has to be so hard. If anyone can, I’d appreciate the help. As it is I’ll probably spend the whole day just trying to get this right.

I am having the same problem. I am in the same place as terrance.
