Question

CF8 : Enabling File Manager in FCKEditor

Dear all,

<cftextarea name="Test"
toolbar="Default"
richtext="true" />

is so good but....

Does someone know if it is possible to use the file manager feature of the embedded CF8 FCKEditor ?

If yes can someone tell me how to activate it?

I have tried to follow instructions given on
http://wiki.fckeditor.net/Developer's_Guide/Integration/ColdFusion

but
\FCKeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\connectors\cfm\config.cfm
and
\FCKeditor\editor\filemanager\upload\cfm\config.cfm

are CF encrypted...

so is there an other way to enable FileManager and therefore how would I go about defining UserFilesPath? (within application variables?)

many many thanks for your help

JC

    Snazzo,

    What do you mean when you say "Then make sure your path in the cftextarea has the right path to the local site fckeditor folder and you should be good to go." ?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Did you ever get this working?  I'd really like to get the image upload/select image working in cftextarea like it does in FCKEditor.  I may have to go back to FCKEditor.

    I set mine up to allow modification of the tool bar, creating my own restrictions. So here is how I did it:
    Copy the folder "fckeditor" to somewhere in your site.
    Find this code in the fckconfig.js file and change the extension to match your code language.
    var _FileBrowserLanguage = 'cfm' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | perl | php | py
    var _QuickUploadLanguage = 'cfm' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | php

    Then find the following code in the config file inside the fckeditor>editor>filemanager>upload>code language and
    fckeditor>editor>filemanager>browser>connectors>code language
    config.enabled = true; (Make sure this is set to true)
    config.userFilesPath = "/images/uploadedImages/";

    Then make sure your path in the cftextarea has the right path to the local site fckeditor folder and you should be good to go.
