Flash Text Area Plugin
This is an alternative RTE for MODx which makes use of Flash TextArea. Although there are still a few quirks, Flash TextArea has an intuitive interface and generates clean code. It's a useful alternative when running into browser compatibility issues with JavaScript-based editors.
Demo:
A demo of the RTE in action can be seen at http://www.extremefx.com.ar/demos/fta/
Installation:
To install, download the archive below which contains the folder "flashtextarea". This folder should be placed in the assets/plugins/ directory of your MODx installation.
Next, create a new plugin within the MODx interface with the name and description of your choice. Next, copy and paste the snippet code contained within the archive as "flashtextarea.snippet.php".
Add the following to the plugin configuration:
Code:
&height=Editor Height;text;450px &lang=Language;list;en,es;en
Under the plugin's events, check the following: OnRichTextEditorInit, OnRichTextEditorRegister
Finally, in order to upload images you will need to edit the file within assets/plugins/flashtextarea/deploy/fileManager.php and change:
Code:
'diskPath'=>''
To the system path where your modx media/images folder lives:
Code:
'diskPath'=>'/path/to/modx/assets/media/'
