    FYI, thanks to some modx from Bruno17, the latest version of TinyMCE does work in the front end. NewsPublisher uses it for the introtext and content fields and any richtext TVs as well as to browse for images in image TVs.

      Any news on how to get this to work for contexts? I tried duplicating the resources under the context and adding the edit_resource and create_resource keys to the context settings but no joy.

        Any idea how I can change the tinymce editor to the simple theme? I want to limit most HTML editing.

        Thanks,
        Josh

          Yes, the settings are in the frontpage template, its uses the advanced theme at the mo, if you look under the Frontpage category in templates you’ll see it, you can edit this to make TinyMCE do what you wish.
            Use MODx, or the cat gets it!

            Very Odd. Just installed Frontpage 1.2 in Revo 2.1.1, seemed to install fine, resources and template created properly. When logged in, I see the toolbar as I should, but clicking either edit or create only produces the dark ajax overlay, no forms/edit interface. Error console only shows TinyMCE style declaration problems, no script errors. Clicking on the page takes me back to standard page view. Any thoughts? Could it be as simple as a CSS z-index problem?

              Just to add to the oddity, I somehow managed to press an invisible button because I successfully created a resource. Obviously the forms/editor are present, I just can’t see ’em. Get the same thing in FireFox (5) and Safari. Working on a Mac, not that it should matter. Bizarro.

                I’ve released 1.3-beta, this is the initial integration of the Aloha editor, you can now edit pages in situ using AJAX calls. Although functional please regard as experimental in this release, there’s more to do here. Also, please read the new Aloha Editor Integration section of the User Guide before using the new functionality. Existing users need not upgrade unless they want to see this new stuff, if you do however, the out of the box install is just as you have now, you have to activate the new features by setting properties on the Frontpage plugin itself so you won’t break anything if you upgrade.

                Feedback/discussion of this feature appreciated.

                  hi shamblett,

                  quick question on aloha: will the in-site-editing also enable editing of tables? (like tinymce’s tablecontrols)

                    There is a table editor plugin in Aloha which is enabled, how good this is compared to TinyMCE I don’t know, if you want to try it go here http://www.aloha-editor.org/ and have a play with it.

                      ok, thanks! the table-editing looks great on www.aloha-editor.org and it seem it can do everything I need.
