I saw that you have not yet implemented a filemanager for ckeditor, may I suggest you look at http://labs.corefive.com/ they have a free opensource filemanager that works great! And also a fix for CKeditor to use it with HTML5 or something. I suggest you guys look at it. |

Thanks but we'll be building our own WYSIWYG plugins that work with the new Files module. | ||

Even better, I only noticed the filmanager missing from CKeditor. Do you have a possible ETA, because I'm kinda curious :D. Almost done with all the current dutch language files, will commit them within 30 minutes. |

We've hit a bit of a stumbling block with the planning for this file manager plugin. Should images and files be treated seperatley? With an image you'll only ever want to insert the img tag, but when inserting a doc file or whatever you'll want to insert a download link. Some other files you'll want to link to in a full window and some other things will have object tags and embed tags. Consfused. Help! |

Maybe when selecting a file do a check if it is an doc or something or an image. Then insert the corresponding right tag. So best way to do it if you use one filemanager is to have a single insert file plugin, and let the plugin check if it is a download or an image. If someone chooses an image the should be able to check a button or something to turn it into a download link. -- ps -- I really have to change my avatar haha |

Another way, is creating a wizardlike insert plugin voor ck. It will show a screen where you can choose by clicking an icon what you want (file download link or image) to insert. Then what kind of type. For files: Word doc, Pdf doc, Txt, etc. When you choose what you want to insert you can give like a icon class to the download link on the page. To show like a pdf icon for a pdf file. With the theme's css you can also customise this. then you can send like a var to the filemanager to filter on a list of filetypes to show. For images: you might insert a check to create lightbox feature if the user wants that, a download link for the image or just an image. then click on the button insert something like that... Thought about it while drinking beer on my parents party so excuse me if it's a bit incoherent. |

I am sober now :D Last idea I have is to create two buttons, one file insert and one image insert. Then just follow the most logical route. so yeah, treat them seperately. I should never post here on my iphone during a party. lol |

The improved file manager (with WYSIWYG buttons) was added in v1.1.0 yes. | ||
