Hello @cdonnelly1992, thank you for taking the time to report this!
We are currently preparing a new release and haven't had the time to look at your issue. We'll give you an answer shortly. Thank you for your understanding!
Hi @cdonnelly1992, we wanted to let you know that we are still working on the issue you raised.
Additionally, we have another question: why don't you want TinyMCE to upload MathML images? The MathType editor plugin is designed to generate images corresponding to input formulas, so the behavior of the output formula is expected to be the same as regular images.
Is there any error or negative impact that leads you to not want to upload formula images?
When I ask tinyMCE for the content editor.getContent()
, wiris turns the image into a mathML string, which is the output I'm expecting.
When I call uploadImage, tinyMCE finds the placeholder image, attempts to upload it and then adds the image ALONG with the mathML to the content. I would imagine that one of the settings given to wiris or the wiris plugin would tell it to choose between outputting the image into tinyMCE's getContent method or outputting the mathML (not both).
Hello, thank you for waiting.
After our investigation, we found that the function for uploading images, including Wiris formulas, is not a bug. As we mentioned before, they are treated as images, so we cannot rule out the possibility that other users may want to upload them.
Therefore, we currently do not plan to make changes. If you wish to skip Wiris formulas, you can add these filters to your project.
Thank you for using our service.
This isn't considered a bug even though in tinyMCE 5, your plugin prevented uploading of the images using one of these same filters?
Hello, TinyMCE 5 has deprecated the images_dataimg_filter
option, so we have removed this feature from the plugin in TinyMCE 6. As mentioned earlier, this change has significant implications, and we cannot guarantee that other users indeed need to upload Wiris formulas. Therefore, we currently do not plan to make changes in this regard.
We encourage you to continue customizing your upload filter in your workaround.
Thank you for your understanding.

Based on reading through tinyMCE's scanForImages, it seems that you guys have a couple "easy" solutions:
