timymce on page

Hi all.

I need to have the following solution:
On a page (secure) I need to have a TinyMCE editor to let users write some text.
When they suse the Image and Link buttons it must get Media And Tree from the running umbraco site. (advImage, advLink)

Version of umbraco is 4.0.3 so using the latest version of TinyMCE.

Badly in need!

This should be possible, however I would be tempted to either

1) Allow the users access to the Umbraco interface. You can use permissions to lock down the tree and additional sections.

2) Create a simplier interface rather than the popups. This would be easier to acheive and could probably be done mostly in xslt.

How far have you got with this? Have you got a secure page running with TinyMCE yet? I'd start there.

Cheers,

Chris

We have a working solution with umbraco 3 and previous TinyMCE version, but cant get the advImage and advLink functions to work in umbraco 4.

The implementation of advImage and advLink functions requires the user to be logged in (as user, not member).

Have you looked at Umbraco's buildin Canvas editing?

Issue with user being logged in as a user is solved, Canvas no option.

We have got so far that we can list the Media tree from umbraco in the advImage function, but when we select an image it doesn't get inserted in the editor on the page.

Sorry I tried it too, but I haven't succeeded at it yet. I did manage to get the TinyMCE working on a custom datatype, but that's not what you're looking for. Maybe the following topics can help:

our.umbraco.org/.../6863-Datatype-on-normal-page-or-UserControl

our.umbraco.org/.../7149-Repeatable-Custom-Content-Source-Code
