Default settings
Describes the built-in settings for the TinyMCE editor.
Optimizely Content Management System (CMS) comes with a preconfigured TinyMCE editor that renders all XHTML properties by default.
The default configuration for TinyMCE uses the constants defined on the EPiServer.Cms.TinyMce.Core.DefaultValues
class. See Plug-ins .
The DefaultValues.EpiserverPlugins
constant defines the default Optimizely plugins:
"epi-link epi-image-editor epi-dnd-processor epi-personalized-content"
Note
The epi-dnd-processor is a required plugin to drag and drop Optimizely content.
The DefaultValues.TinyMcePlugins
constant defines the default TinyMCE plugins:
"help image fullscreen lists searchreplace"
The DefaultValues.Toolbar
constant defines the default toolbar configuration:
"formatselect | bold italic | epi-link image epi-image-editor epi-personalized-content
| bullist numlist outdent indent | searchreplace fullscreen | help
"
Overriding the defaults
To override the default settings, use ServiceCollection
extension.
The TinyMceSettings
class provides helper methods for setting the most common settings within TinyMCE, which map to the configuration settings documented on TinyMCE's website.
However, you can configure settings that do not have a helper method by using the AddSetting
or RawSettings
methods.
public static class ServiceCollectionExtentions
{
public static IServiceCollection AddTinyMceConfiguration(this IServiceCollection services)
{
services.Configure<TinyMceConfiguration>(config =>
{
config.Default()
.BodyClass("custom_body_class")
.ContentCss("/static/css/editor.css")
.AddSetting("directionality", "rtl");
});
return services;
}
}
When overriding the defaults, you should call the AddEpiserverSupport
method to get the basic Optimizely plugins and styling configured.
public static class ServiceCollectionExtentions
{
public static IServiceCollection AddTinyMceConfiguration(this IServiceCollection services)
{
services.Configure<TinyMceConfiguration>(config =>
{
config.Default()
.AddEpiserverSupport()
.Toolbar("custom toolbar items");
});
return services;
}
}
AddTinyMceConfiguration
should be added to the Startup.cs like:
public class Startup
{
private readonly IWebHostEnvironment _webHostingEnvironment;
private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
public Startup(IWebHostEnvironment webHostingEnvironment, IConfiguration configuration)
{
_webHostingEnvironment = webHostingEnvironment;
_configuration = configuration;
}
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddTinyMceConfiguration();
}
}
