Improvement idea n°11 : TinyMCE editor, images present as thumbnails rather than as a list and upload files directly with TinyMCE editor #5409

Closed ghost closed 11 years ago

ghost commented 11 years ago

When adding images to the TinyMCE editor, present as thumbnails rather than as a list, not quite intuitive. An early solution here: http://forum.contao.fr/tutoriels-contao/tutoriel-integration-plugin-imagemanager-pour-tinymce-t2452.html ?

And allow upload files when editing a content / news directly from the TinyMCE editor, rather than going first by the "Explorer files. "

Just as note: I wrote a new link editor, that provide tree view and thumbnails, but it is frozen. Maybe this is a good start to a new editor. https://github.com/bit3/contao-contaolinks

Indeed, use another text editor may be a solution...

But why contao-contaolinks it's "frozen" ?

This was discussed multiple times, it is not a solution because the link editor and image selector have to be rewritten to regard the contao security model.

But why contao-contaolinks it's "frozen" ?

Because I have no time to continue this extension.

See #1698.

See #1698.

And?

This implies what exactly? This option will not be included in Contao?

In WordPress, there is a button for editing content that can upload images without going through the file manager and also view images as thumbnails and non-list form!

That means we already have a ticket which covers that topic. That is why your ticket was tagged as a "duplicate".

Ok, but is there a hope that the text editor is improved in future versions of Contao (eg 3.1.0)?

Especially for adding a file (to avoid having to go through the file explorer before writing his text)

I found a text editor named http://ckeditor.com/

This may help the community?

+1 !!!

tristanlins commented 11 years ago

@fixounet no, it will not help to change the editor, because we have to write our own file selector to consider the contao rights management. This will not help and is already discussed many times.

btw, there is my contaolinks extension, that has support for thumbnails and tree selection mode.
