Add custom macros
Creating simple macros to provide useful work shortcuts.
Procedure
-
Using a plain text editor, open customization_path/javascript/tiny/editors/connections/config.js.
Note: Use a plain text editor to avoid inserting invalid formatting or symbols into config.js. Do not use a rich text editor such as Microsoft Word for editing configuration files.
-
Locate the
postCreateTextboxio
function template.This function is called for both Textbox.io and TinyMCE, and only accepts one parametereditor
. -
Use the runtime API
editor.macros.addSimpleMacro
to add a macro.Note: The usage is as follows:editor.macros.addSimpleMacro(startString, endString, callback);
where
- startString
- is a string to search for signifying the beginning of the macro replacement.
- endString
- is a string to search for signifying the end of the macro replacement.
- callback
- is a function that receives the text between the
startString
andendString
markers and returns HTML which should replace it (includingstartString
andendString
).
Macros could be used to implement a simplified bbcode like system.Multiple macros can be created. -
When you have finished making configuration changes, follow the post-customization steps to ensure the server cache is updated.
Note: If the configuration changes do not take affect, restart the Common enterprise application to force a cache update.
