Support Thread for CKEditor Plugin

[DivaVocals]

There's never been a support thread established for CKEditor Plugin for Zen Cart and I've spent all morning looking for posts which might help explain my CK Editor issues.. There are threads all over the forum and no singlular place for CK Editor help. There is the OLD FCKEditor support thread, but that module is dead.. So I decided to take the initiative and create a support thread for CKEditor.. Hope the admins don't mind.. I even will update this later to try and link related useful CK Editor support posts here as well..

I had a client report that CKEditor had just SUDDENLY stopped working.. Upon further examination, I realized the issue with CKEditor not working was due to the fact that line 20 of the "YOUR_ADMIN/includes/ckeditor.php" file was failing if you are logged in to the admin using SSL..

I thought that an upgrade to the latest and greatest version might solve the problem. It didn't.. Then I took a look at line 20 of the "YOUR_ADMIN/includes/ckeditor.php" file in the newest CKEditor fileset and found what I THINK is an error..

I changed line 20 of the "YOUR_ADMIN/includes/ckeditor.php" file as follows:

From:

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo (strstr(HTTP_SERVER, 'ttps:') ? 'https' : 'http'); ?>://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

To:

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo (strstr(HTTP_SERVER, 'https:') ? 'https' : 'http'); ?>://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

It seemed to solve my issue.. wanted to share and verify that this is the correct fix..

This is what I have from the latest release for the plugin for v1.5.1:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

Doing it this way makes it work regardless of SSL or not.

I should have been clear in my previous post that I was using the 1.3.9 - 1.5.0 admin files in the latest download.. (My client is still running v1.5.0) There are three admin folders in the zip file. One for v1.3.9-1.50, another for v1.5.1, and a 3rd for v1.6..

line 20 from the v1.5.1 admin folder reads:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

However, line 20 from the v1.3.9-1.5.0 admin folder reads (with my previous posted edit):

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo (strstr(HTTP_SERVER, 'https:') ? 'https' : 'http'); ?>://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

If I understand you correctly I should update the file to use the v1.5.1 version..

While I'm pretty sure the entire file can be used, I'm confident that updating that one line will fix the problem you first posted about.

Got it! Thanks..

Thanks to stevesh!

In case anybody else comes along and wants to accomplish the same, there is a bit more involved.

First, download the addon:
http://ckeditor.com/addon/justify

Unzip the file, then upload the folder "justify" directly into /editors/ckeditor/plugins

Next, open this file /editors/ckeditor/config.js and add the following snippet:
config.extraPlugins = 'justify';

It's up and running smooth for me. Best of luck!

All: Any thoughts about having a second version of the plugin offering the Full CKEditor package instead of Standard?

The full editor just causes extreme feature-bloat for no added value. But anyone can grab the latest "full" and upload it to their site in a few minutes, after installing the plugin.

Which specific additional plugin features are being begged for regularly?

Someone wanted the ability to change fonts. I could do it as a one-off if there's no widespread interest.
