Another WYSIWYG Editor For MovableTypeThis is mostly a note for me, so move on if you're not interested. But I've used Arvind's great EnhanceEntryEditing plugin on the Cascade Winds site for quite a while and it's really simple and has a super clean install, but I've wanted something more for quite a while. I've always liked FCKeditor, and there's a plugin for MT that uses it. It looks a bit more complicated to install, but for a fully featured FCKeditor, it's probably be worth it. One of these days I'm going to get this site redesigned to use the default styles so I can use one of these great styles as a starting point (entirely CSS) and some of the handy plugins here that would require me to hack this current template to pieces.

I even hacked up my own filebrowser and upload forms to allow image resizing (via ImageMagick) on upload. The editor itself is pretty solid, and is more cross-platform than most WYSIWYG editors I've seen... let me know if you want the image resizing stuff. Aaron Wormus said on 07/12/06 @ 03:07 AM: I've never been a big fan of wysiwyg editors for my blog entries. I like wordpress's mix of javascript generated html and nl2br work. Works for me. Jake said on 07/12/06 @ 09:36 AM: Jon: I like FCKeditor, too, use it on several other site. MT already has built-in imageresizing using either Imagemagick or NebPBM, but I still run it through photoshop to add watermarks. Aaron: I don't use a WYSIWYG editor for this site, but there are many times where people would use one for other sites I work on. I actually use SharpMT to compose my entries for this site, and the only thing I allow MT to do is convert line breaks because I'm too lazy to put in <br> tags. Post a comment |
