    Contour custom TinyMCE FieldType

    Hi,

     

    We are using Umbraco 7.2 with Contour and we want to create our own TinyMCE FieldType so we can post HTML but we are getting into some difficulties. When following the code similar to the link found here : http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/38385-Custom-Field-Type-in-V3 but we are getting no suitable method found to override. We are inheriting the FieldType as described in the post.

     

    Are there any uptodate examples on how to create a TinyMCE FieldType for Contour?

     

    Many thanks

     

    Jon

    Hi Jonanthan,

    Please don't double post - It creates too much noice and can lead to unwanted confusion :) http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/60783-Create-TinyMCE-Editor-for-Contour-

    That being said, I assume that you are using Umbraco Forms, since you are using Umbraco 7.2. Try to see the documentation about how to extending the Umbraco Forms http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Products/UmbracoForms/Developer/Extending/ and specific about field types: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Products/UmbracoForms/Developer/Extending/Adding-a-Fieldtype

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply and apologies for the Double Entry - its a bit confusing to where to place these questions.

    Regarding the post above, I have seen these types of posts before but cannot find one for the Tiny MCE. Do you know if there is anything available and why I am getting a no suitable method found to override?

     

    Thanks

    Jon

    Hi Jon,

    Can see Anthony are getting the same no suitable method found to override message like you in this thread http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/27135-country-picker-in-Contour. To it looks like the example is for Umbraco Forms. But I am not a backend developer :-)

    Perhaps you can solve it by reading through the thread above.

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I will wait for a back end developer to answer my question then as I have already read this article.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Jon,

    I've had a little look at this and I believe the reason why it's working for you is that your using an older version of Contour - I presume you're on the latest version (4 I think).

    Anyway I've managed to successfully create a Rich Text Editor for Contour.

    Firstly drop the overrides. They don't exist

    I've kept it basic for now:

    namespace CustomContour
    

    { public class RichTextEditor : Umbraco.Forms.Core.FieldType { [Umbraco.Forms.Core.Attributes.Setting("Rich Text Editor", description = "Rich Text Editor to allow users to submit formatted HTML")] public string richTextArea { get; set; } private TextBox txt = new TextBox(); public List
