TinyFCK (Tiny MCE + FCK image/file uploader)

I’ve just done this. Open up ext.lg_tinymce.php and find this line (696):

tinyMCE.init({'.$settings_parts.'});

Copy the code from the TinyFCK example below this so what you end up with is:

[removed]
//<![CDATA[
    tinyMCE.init({'.$settings_parts.'});
    
    function fileBrowserCallBack(field_name, url, type, win) {
    var connector = "../../filemanager/browser.html?Connector=connectors/php/connector.php";
    var enableAutoTypeSelection = true;
    
    var cType;
    tinyfck_field = field_name;
    tinyfck = win;
    
    switch (type) {
        case "image":
            cType = "Image";
            break;
        case "flash":
            cType = "Flash";
            break;
        case "file":
            cType = "File";
            break;
    }
    
    if (enableAutoTypeSelection && cType) {
        connector += "&Type;=" + cType;
    }
    
    window.open(connector, "tinyfck", "modal,width=600,height=400");
    }
//]]>
[removed]';

Then open up /filemanager/connectors/php/config.php and fill in the paths to your image folder as described in this wiki article.

And finally, in your LG TinyMCE extension settings, add in:

file_browser_callback : "fileBrowserCallBack"

And that should be it.

Actually, I’ve got another question about this. If you set:

$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/images/uploads/';

When you launch the image or file manager for the first time, it displays an empty directory and after you upload new files, it creates new directories - /Images and /Files inside of /images/uploads/

How do you get it to display the contents of /images/uploads/ without creating new directories (ie, like Moxiecode’s filemanager plugin does)?

In my opinion, the TinyMCE editor in combination with their File + Image Manager is the best and far most comfortable solution available for customers. Just a thought, although I’d prefer something open source 😊

wow that was quick. i’ll try this out today

This worked excellent in LG_tinyMCE 1.2. Now I installed LG_tinyMCE 1.3. The code in 1.3 changed, so now I miss the line at 696 (tinyMCE.init({ '.$settings_parts.' });).

I’m not good with the code, so does anyone know where to place the fck-code to work together with lgTinyMCE

It’s at line 1024 of 1.3.1.

I got TinyMCE working, and even had TinyFCK working for a couple days, but now TinyFCK has stopped working, and when I try to get it to work it takes out TinyMCE. Perhaps I added another extension or something that is blocking it somehow. The only think I can seen to figure out is that when I add file_browser_callback : “fileBrowserCallBack” to the LG TinyMCE extension settings TInyMCE stops even showing up. When I remove file_browser_callback from the settings TinyMCE comes back.

Anybody more experienced than me know where I might want to look to solve this issue?

Well, I solved my issue. Missing one of those darn commas again. Remember your commas!

file_browser_callback : “fileBrowserCallBack”,
