[Plugin: CKEditor For WordPress] How to switch CKEditor on custom texarea-s

  • Dear Developers!

    How can i turn CKEditor on, on my custom textarea-s (but keeping the post and page editor also on CKEditor) in the WordPress admin section? I tried this code, but didn’t work:

    <script type="text/javascript"<
var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor( 'MyTextarea' ) ;
oFCKeditor.BasePath = '/FCKEditor/fckeditor/';
oFCKeditor.Config['CustomConfigurationsPath'] = "/FCKEditor/fckeditor.config.js";
oFCKeditor.ReplaceTextarea() ;
</script>

    Thank you!

    @voriand, could u tell me why u are try to use FCKEditor here?

    FCKEditor is not supported a really long time… Instead of this pls update to last version of CKEditor plugin and try to use CKEditor instead.

    Okay, my bad… The code snippet is from a random blog i found searching the answer. I’m using CKEditor for sure, so the question is the same:
    How can i use it on custom textfields? ??

    Thx

    Try to add to your code something like this:

    $("#text_area_id").addClass("mceEditor");
if ( typeof( tinyMCE ) == "object" && typeof( tinyMCE.execCommand ) == "function" ) {
tinyMCE.execCommand("mceAddControl", false, "text_area_id");
}

    This add support for TinyMCE in this textarea, but CKEditor use their engine to show editor so it should works fine.

    Okay, i try qith this:

    <script type="text/javascript">
	$("the_textarea_id").addClass("mceEditor");
	if ( typeof( tinyMCE ) == "object" && typeof( tinyMCE.execCommand ) == "function" ) {
	tinyMCE.execCommand("mceAddControl", false, "the_textarea_id");
	}
	</script>

    direct under the textarea code, but nothing happening and the debugger says:

    “$ is not a function
    $(“the_textarea_id”).addClass(“mceEditor”);”

    PS.: I’m not that good with JS ??

    It looks that you should use id of your textarea in place of the_textarea_id in code above. Just try replace the_textarea_id for id of your textarea.

    I just replaced my id to “the_textarea_id”, so i don’t have to use the real name…

    obviously in the snippet and in the error message are the real ids

    Please try use jQuery instead of $.
