I wondered why this is never documented before, so here is a short tutorial about how to add a YouTube button to TinyMCE 3.x:
- Download the TinyMCE 3.x YouTube button plugin from here:
http://www.vierkante-meter.nl/rommelmap/tinymce-youtube/youtube.zip or download the attatchment.
- Extract the zip and upload it to assets/components/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/youtube (So the files are in the folder youtube, and not youtube/youtube)
- Go to the MODX system settings section TinyMCE and add 'youtube' to tiny.custom_buttons1 and tiny.custom_plugins
- Clear the MODX cache and your browser cache
- Enjoy
PS: If TinyMCE is not showing up in the manager that's because the language file for the plugin could not be found. You have to create two language files in assets/components/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/youtube/langs/ (xx.js and xx_dlg.js), the same as your MODX manager language setting. The following langauge files are included in the plugin: de, en, fr, ru, nl
PPS: My YouTube plugin is based on the YouTube plugin below, but I've made some modifications so it does accept https:// URL's. And I've included Dutch translation.
