Adding Custom Content Types to the Rich Text FarCry Button

[James Buckingham]

Hiya,

Is it possible to add custom content types into the rich text editor?

I'm specifically looking at the Link type just now but I guess this
applies to any if we needed FarCry to dynamically add in the links off
a "Related Content" Library picker.

Had a look in the documentation but I can't seem to find anything
about doing this.

Cheers,
James

Look at the core dmHTML type. Unfortunately the new docs don't include that information yet, but the body and aObjectIDs properties are related so that the FarCry button on one can reference specific content types in the other. I can't remember the specifics thought, so you'll have to go core spelunking.

Ok found the right line in the dmHTML:


<cfproperty ftSeq="12" ftwizardStep="Body" ftFieldset="Body"
name="Body" type="longchar" hint="Main body of content." required="no"
default="" ftType="richtext" ftLabel="Body"
ftImageArrayField="aObjectIDs" ftImageTypename="dmImage"
ftImageField="StandardImage"

ftTemplateTypeList="dmImage,dmFile,dmFlash,dmNavigation,dmHTML,dmLink"
ftTemplateWebskinPrefixList="insertHTML"
ftLinkListRelatedTypenames="dmFile,dmNavigation,dmHTML,dmLink"
ftTemplateSnippetWebskinPrefix="insertSnippet">


I've added in dmLink and it's now appearing in the tabs and I'm
getting my related content in the Item dropdown, however I'm not
seeing anything in the template options. Added dmLink into
ftLinkRelatedTypenames and ftTemplateTypeList is there anything else I
should be doing?

Thanks again,
James

Oh hang on am I right in thinking I need a Webskin for this?

Looking at : ftTemplateWebskinPrefixList="insertHTML"

yup! just find some examples for insertHTML (or is it insertHTMLSnippet) in the core webskins and copy away.
