Plans for TinyMCE4 and WordPress 3.9? #76

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Although I do have an issue regarding tooltips in IE 11, my search for an 
answer led me to find that the new version of Ultimate TinyMCE won't have 
imgmap in it because the developers can't find Adam to discuss an update.

Any chance you could join in at:

http://forum.joshlobe.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=34

to let us know if there is a plan?

If I use imgmap as a standalone, will plugin_tinymce3_108.zip work with WP 3.9?

Sorry, I copied The wrong file name.  I meant to ask: Will imgmap_2.2_108.zip 
work with TinyMCE 4 and WP 3.9?

Hi Jeff,

Funny, I am not at all elusive as the forum readers suggest, look, you have 
just found me!:)
Regarding new Tiny support, I do not have much news unfortunately. I did not 
plan to work on that.

Adam -

Well, yes, here you are - though there are a few lingering dead-ends for you 
over at SourceForge.

And it took me part of a day to realize that you and imgmap are essentially the 
same thing.  

Regardless, hi.

As a poor schlub trying to add CONTENT to a website, I get dizzy trying to 
figure out the relationship between WordPress, my theme, tinymce, imgmap, etc. 
regarding where one ends and the other begins, and whose update trumps which 
layer.

So the sort of bundling (for lack of a more industry appropriate term) done by 
Ultimate Tinymce (for example) which allows a non-coder like me to download a 
composite plugin and get some work done...

Anyway, the ability to click and drag a link area shape to a useful size - 
which then generates its own coordinates - is pretty much heaven for what I 
need to get done.  Thanks for developing it.

Over at a forum on tinymce.com someone named Nick Wilde, of Briar Moon Design, 
said that he didn't think there was an image map plugin for ver 4.x, and then 
wrote: "wait a day or two I'll make a tinyMCE 4x plugin".  That was in December 
'13.

To which Josh, with Ultimate Tinymce, said (in February) "I am fairly familiar 
with the TinyMCE plugin coding process.. but I have zero experience with image 
mapping from a back-end.  I can certainly help with the coding... but you would 
have to guide the 'logistics' of development."

I'm pretty sure Josh's offer to Nick, who never responded, would also apply to 
you, though I don't know when.  Since (apparently) nobody has the time to 
tackle the whole project, is some sort of collaborative arrangement possible?

Jeffrey

I have spent oodles of time getting this to work properly with the latest 
versions of WordPress (4.0) and TinyMCE (4.1.16).

I have it working, and it is only included in my WP Edit Pro plugin.
https://wpeditpro.com

You can click the "Demo" tab from that site, and see it in action on the 
demonstration site.

I finally had a chance to put together a new interactive map (using Firefox).  
Everything seemed to be working fine, so I went ahead and updated Wordpress on 
my other sites.

Sites that used to work had about 70% of the links wiped out when I updated.

Now I discover that Image Map doesn't work in IE. The map I put together in 
Firefox after updating has all the links working in IE, but no tags show up 
with the mouse hover.  (I don't have room for all the place names on the map 
itself.) Before I crawl under a rock and die, do you have any suggestions for 
how I get my maps working?  I know I have to rebuild the old ones that are 
damaged, but can't make myself start on it until I know how to make the "alt" 
tags work.  I was hours away from doing a major email promotion when I 
discovered the problem....

Apparently I had already crawled under a rock, having just learned the IE 
hasn't displayed alt tags since IE 7 (or so)!

Anyone know a way to make a longdesc read as a phrase instead of a web address?

Hi Jeffrey,

Not really relevant to the title of this issue, but true, you cannot use title 
or alt for this in a way that will work on all browsers. You will need a 
javascript plugin to make this happen. Google around to find one.

I'm now reminded that all the way up at the top of this thread I had been 
trying to find a solution to the missing tooltips in IE when I stumbled across 
the impending incompatibility of imgmap and Wordpress.  I had forgotten the 
original problem.
Thanks for taking the time to update imgmap for WP Edit Pro.  Should I now be 
uninstalling Ultimate TinyMCE?

The only plugins I've found so far either place the tooltip bubble clear off my 
map, or were built for use in the visual editor by linking to a word, form 
field, image, etc.  So far, nothing I can embed in some part of the html for 
the imgmap link.
