CKEditor Drag and Drop Image Upload

[William]

I'm getting a file upload server error in 5.3.4 Beta, could someone verify?

Haha thanks man.

Ok here we are had to use CTRL+V to paste image

Ok it looks like copy paste upload only works in Firefox. I was using Chrome. I also tried in Edge and it didn't work.

I discovered the copy/paste that works (at least in Chrome and Firefox) and uploads the image into vB5 using this mod. Using the Paste operation from context menu also works not just using CTRL+V or Command+V.

• If you use a screen capture tool (e.g. Snipping Tool in Windows) and copy (not save) the image, you can paste it in the CKEditor and it will be automatically uploaded.
• If you are editing an image in an image editor tool (e.g. Paint) and select the image and copy it, you can paste it in the CKEditor and it will be automatically uploaded.

Fantastic!

All these little tweaks make the vB experience all that much better!.

Good thing there were no changes.

Thanks Glenn, the underline button now works and no issues with 5.3.4!

First post updated with this fix.

[glennrocksvb]

It looks like I found a fix! vB5 ships /js/ckeditor/config.js file as part of the vB5 package. But it is never ever actually used when the editor is loaded and initialized. But if you install this Drag and Drop Image Upload mod, this config.js file is used and all the configurations will take effect. One of the configurations is to remove the Underline button.

To fix this issue, you have to edit the /js/ckeditor/config.js file on your server using FTP or cPanel (or its equivalent).

Find the following line:

config.removeButtons = 'Underline,Subscript,Superscript';

and then remove Underline, (include the trailing comma)

config.removeButtons = 'Subscript,Superscript';

You will have to clear your browser cache for it to get the latest version of config.js. If you are using CDN or CloudFlare, you would have to also purge the cache on their server.

While waiting for the missing underline button issue (which might take a while to fix), you can highlight a text and use the CTRL+U (Command-U for Mac) keyboard shortcut to underline a text or manually use [u][/u] BBCode.

I will look into the missing underline button issue. Thanks William for confirming it is caused by this mod.

Thanks Willie

Updated to 5.3.4 Alpha and the mod works. However, it causes the disappearance of the underline button in Ckeditor. This is a well used and important function in my forum now gone missing.

Glenn, after I updated to 5.3.4 I checked to see whether the button was present and it was. After making the file edits it wasn't.

Enjoy,
William

Hi William
untill this is working it can be achieved with bbcode like [b]so[/u] although not working as i think the bbcode has been turned off here

glennrocksvb i compared both the files for any changes using winmerge and there where no differences between them

You should not do that. If uploader.php and ckeditor-rollup534a4.js have newer code than its previous version, then you would lose all those changes
