Collection of how to use several CKEditor Plugins

[bernhard]

Hi everybody,

I'm doing some CKEditor optimizations and as I'm not doing that often it's bringing quite some trouble with it... For example today I wanted to add the maximize plugin and it didn't work - the docs of CKEditor are slightly different to what we need at ProcessWire, so I thought we could share our findings in this thread!

See here:

I remember this thread too :

Maximize works right out of the box. 

I use it in almost every installation without adding anything new - besides the Maximize entry in the CKEditor-field settings.

Thx, that's an interesting point and exactly what I was talking about: Docs are bad or misleading. Justify did also work without adding any files - I don't know why. Does anybody know why?

I've just found that there are several plugins in the AdminOnSteroids folder. I thought maybe that's the case why Maximize works out of the box (and so does Justify). But I renamed both maximize folders to maximize2 and the plugin does still work. But there are definitely no other maximize folders...

@tpr any hints for us?

I don't use AoS... so it's actually not the reason.

The reason is way more PW-like:

Thx, that explains it ? I've also linked to your explanation in this old justify walkthrough that I was following all the time, not knowing that it was overly complicated ...

Well... that guide is from 2014 - maybe back then life wasn't that easy in the  PW-world. I don't know. ? 

[bernhard]

Usually guides from 2014 work just well and are still valid ?

That's unique to the ProcessWire-environment.

Never trust a Tax-Guide that's older than a month. ?

[bernhard]

Yeah, I was talking about PW guides ?
