Jennifer Lampton has a video of the DrupalCamp Austin in November 20th 2011, explaining some advanced configuration with Drupal, TinyMCE and different modules.

There is a lot of modules, issues and security to keep track of when configuring your editor to Drupal, she goes through configuring and adding some good functionality.

Check out the video on her website.

Of course, we would recommend using MCFileManager and/or MCImageManager with Drupal to make it easier to work with images

We at Moxiecode would like to thank you all for a great year and we are looking forward to another one just like it (but even better!).

Shoutouts to our friends at Ephox, for their great contribution to the TinyMCE code base.

Also shoutouts to the WordPress guys, congratulations on the 3.3 release, we now have 2 of our projects running within WordPress, both TinyMCE and Plupload.

Thanky you all for using our products.

Jake Goldman, chief engineer and CEO of 10up LLC posted a slide of his talk at 2011 Wordcamp earlier.

Showing some advanced work on how to customize and form the editor to fit your website better, using custom styles, adding custom buttons and styling the interface, a very good slide, wish I had heard the talk.

Check out the article and slides here.

Aditia Rahman has made an article about custimizing TinyMCE with CSS.

He replaces the icons with the popular Famfam silkicons library, you can download his creation on his website.

Check out the article.

If you have any insteresting articles about our products, lets us know and we will feature you here on our blog.

Today we released a new service, to allow you to try different configurations and setups with TinyMCE, as well as aid in examples for our bugtracking system, we introduce TinyMCE Fiddle (fiddle.tinymce.com). Service is still in beta stage, feel free to comment and provide feedback in the forums at tinymce.com.

This service is heavily inspired by jsfiddle.net

We finally aquired the TinyMCE.com domain, sponsored to us by Ephox.

Also done some minor updates to the website, nothing major just some fixes and tweaks.

We have been working on getting TinyMCE to run on the iPad, most things seem to actually work, except that the browser crashes a bit and the UI isn’t really a perfect fit for that type of interaction, but it is getting there.

Yes mark your date with March 31, 6:30 PM (USA Pacific Time, GMT – 8), our partner Ephox is hosting the first TinyMCE meetup ever! We will be available via video link from Sweden to their office during the meetup. The meeting will be held at the Ephox office in Palo Alto, we would love if you TinyMCE users out there could help completly fill their office up! We will be talking about the roadmap and also take in any questions you might have surrounding TinyMCE.

For more details and signing up, check out the Meetup page!

The buzz around Plupload is huge right now, much more than we anticipated, and we are putting more resources into the continued development of Plupload and starting to create a community around it similar to TinyMCE. Over the next couple of weeks/months you will see a rebuild of the website so contain a wiki for the documentation as well as its own bug/feature tracker system (like the new one we are using for TinyMCE). The current website wasn’t built to contain so much content, but as the project grows, so must the website.

The new TinyMCE website is a huge success, ppl are getting engaged with the bug/feature tracker and submitting good quality reports, something we appreciate a lot and we no longer have to put up with the incredibly turtle-slow Sourceforge tracker system.

Just as a side note, many seems very interested in exactly when the new TinyMCE version will be out of Beta, can’t give you any exact date, but we expect this to be the last beta unless something unexpected shows up.

Finally we got the new web site out the door. This new site is a complete redesign and it also contains a lot new community features. We have described each of the features below you feedback is always welcome so that we can continue to improve the community functions.

Issue tracker

We have now moved away from the SourceForge issue tracker and built our own custom one. This gives us the ability to add exactly the features we want such as bug voting and tie it to GitHub. It should now be a lot faster to work with since SourceForge was a pretty slow service. We will also be more responsive when it comes to resolving bugs now when we have a more easy to use tool.

Wiki

The Wiki was moved from MediaWiki into a custom Wiki that uses HTML and TinyMCE for it’s editor interface. The wiki lets you structure pages into a page tree and supports syntax validation for source code samples.

Translation Service

A popular feature of the old site was the translation service that enabled uses to translate TinyMCE to it’s native language. We have improved this feature for the new site and it’s now possible to both translate and preview the results on the site. It makes it a lot faster and easier to contribute language packs to the project and those contributions are always welcome.

API Documentation

The documentation has been improved and one of these improvements is the API documentation. This one is now inline inside the wiki, it’s exported out of the source code of TinyMCE using our Moxiedoc tool and users can comment on the different parts of it. It’s very similar to how www.php.net has it’s documentation.

Examples

The example section has been improved by moving all examples into categories. We will continue to add more examples here and any feedback on what to add here is always welcome.

Custom download packages

A common complaint we see regarding TinyMCE is that people say it has to many files. So we wanted to change that, the site now includes a tool for only selecting the components you need and save this as a preset on your account. Then each release you can simply just download the preset package.

Me and Spocke is taking a trip to Palo Alto, California for a couple of days at the start of December (1th-5th) to meet up with some business and technology partners. We are looking forward to seeing the center of the IT industry, if you wish to meetup there for some reason, get in touch with us, our time is limited but we might be able to work something out.

On another note, we have a new employee, Davit Barbakadze has been helping us out for a bit the last couple of weeks and he is now a part of Moxiecode Systems AB. His main focus right now will be to incorporate some fixes and enhancements into Plupload and then move over to help out on TinyMCE development as well as other development.
