Redactor and customizations.

Permalink
I was reading today about some of the up and coming changes in 5.7. The move from TinyMCE to redactor has me both excited and concerned. Excited because I have had to implement custom code in tinymce and know what a pain it is. But concerned for the same reason. It looks to me like redactor works against textareas the same way TinyMCE has done, and makes me want to believe that I can create a custom block to use TinyMCE in 5.7 as well if I have to.

As I mentioned, I have written some customization code to tinyMCE to do things that the default doesn't. For example, all our files and images are stored at Rackspace's CDN, so I removed the insert file and insert image tools and inserted them as TinyMCE plugins. In order to update to 5.7 I will first need to provide a way to do this with redactor.

Has anyone done any work yet on customizing plugins with redactor yet?

Thanks for any insight.

Joe

There's concrete5's own redactor extensions if you're interested:

I did a bit of hunting on this and the redactor file callshttps://github.com/concrete5/concrete5-5.7.0/blob/master/web/concret... which in turn calls theme methods like `getThemeEditorClasses()`. Currently these are returning empty arrays so I'm not sure what the story is.
