Revisit/Reopen #90 - Creating link to document

[nwbowensby]

Motivation

Why is this feature required? What problems does it solve?

If you reread #90 you will see that I requested to be able to create a link to a document in the media library. I tested your new release and you cant do this even though you closed the ticket. The issue is that the popup for selecting media has a restriction on it to limit it to pictures. I need to use it for pdfs. If there is a setting to control this please let me know

Proposed solution

An ideal solution for the above problems.

I'm sorry about the misunderstanding. At the time you wrote the original issue, it was not possible to create a link to a media file at all. We had to introduce the functionality first. Allowing specific file types is a matter of configuration. PDFs are not allowed file types by default, however you can allow them using a custom configuration, see https://github.com/Kentico/ems-mvc-components/wiki/Customizing-the-Rich-text-editor-toolbar. The code may look like this:

<script>
    (function (pageBuilder) {
        var richTextEditor = pageBuilder.richTextEditor = pageBuilder.richTextEditor || {};
        var configurations = richTextEditor.configurations = richTextEditor.configurations || {};
        // This would override the default configuration
        configurations["default"] = {
            imageAllowedTypes: ['jpeg', 'pdf'],
        };
    })(window.kentico.pageBuilder);
</script>

Thank you for the information. The reason I put that ticket in was because the media functionality wasn't there so I was well aware of that. I was a little disappointed that my ticket was closed before I was given a chance to verify it would be taken care of. I'm glad that it all worked out though.
