ckeditor does not load plugin BJ Tools VisualEditor

[RVPHX]

How to solve this problem?

Win 10 Pro 1803 64 bit

Firefox Quantum 65.0.2 64 bit

TiddlyWiki Version 5.1.19

That works:

But 

<script src="file://d/TiddlyWiki/ckeditor/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>

or 

<script src="file://d:/TiddlyWiki/ckeditor/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>

aren't working.

Then ckeditor does not load and also no (visible) error message(s). 

I downloaded the CKEDITOR Standard Package and followed the instructions from BJ Tools VisualEditor $:/plugins/bj/visualeditor.

To avoid querks with loading the library from the web include the library from your Computer ...

And promptly I have the querks!

What's wrong?

Hi RVPHX,

Did you remember to set the tiddler type and what type did you use? I had to to try a couple of ckeditor versions to get it working with type=text/x-htmlp. I used the library from the web.

IMO its pretty amazing you can still get it to work. BJ made that yonks ago. Since then ckeditor has changed a lot, as has TW.

I do think an information update on INSTALL could be useful?

I'm sure BJ will help if you ask him.

Best wishes

Hi Josiah,

On Linux using Chromium and TW5 version 5.1.19, it worked just as explained by BJ, http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com/#VisualEditor

Drag and drop the plugin to your TW. Save and refresh.

I used it from the web and got the link https://ckeditor.com/ckeditor-4/download/

Open tiddler: $:/plugin/bj/visualeditor/includelib

Insert :<script src="http://cdn.ckeditor.com/4.11.3/standard/ckeditor.js"></script>

Save and refresh your TW.

Create a new tiddler, set the type to text/x-htmlp. Save and close the tiddler. When you open your tiddler again it will load the visual editor.

Downloading and using library locally I have never tried. Using it from the web it does not take long time to load.

Hi RVPHX,

On Linux using Chromium, I tried downloading and loading from local. That worked also. I dragged the ckeditor.js from my filemanager to a new tab in the browser to get the path right. Copied and used in the $:/plugin/bj/visualeditor/includelib. Save and and reload your wiki. I worked straight away.

Thank you all for your efforts!

I'm using TiddlyWikiDesktop. The behavior is strange in some places. 

- installing plugins

- chrashes of TiddlyWikiDesktop  

I will change to Firefox and give it a second try. 

Since I want to extend VisualEditor with the CKEditor plugin text color, I am looking for corresponding instructions on the Internet. I also found the following syntax for loading the ckeditor lib: 

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”./ckeditor/ckeditor.js“></script> 
<script src='http://127.0.0.1/libs/ckeditor/ckeditor.js'></script>

Hi Rvphx, you download different versions of ckeditor from https://ckeditor.com/ckeditor-4/download/. The 'full package' contains a color picker. (it is also easy to 'build your own' and select the plugins you want)

can just put in the path to the lib in the includelib tid (example path is a linux style path) and then save reload your tiddlywiki:

cheers
