FCKeditor

FCKeditor for Plone is a WYSIWYG editor you may prefer to Kupu. It comes with nice PloneArticle dedicated features: an images and files browser that finds the PloneArticle embedded images and files, images and files uploading directly in the PloneArticle.

Install

Just as any Plone product:

• Inflate the PloneArticle-x.y.z.tgz in the Products directory of your Zope instance.

• Use the quickinstaller on your Plone site(s)

• Go to the PloneArticle preferences configlet and tweak it in conformance with your site policy.

• If you use a version of plone not providing jquery by default, go to javascript_registry in the ZMI and enable pa_jquery manually.

Configure

General

PloneArticle comes with a configuration panel to tweak most harmless features (available models, file/image/link types). You can limit the size (in bytes) for uploaded images and files.

CMFEditions support

Open as site Manager http://_your_site_/versioning_config_form in your browser (yes, there’s no link from control panel portet in Plone 3.0.3!), and activate versioning for PloneArticle. Optionally select desired policies.

Be aware that versioning is open to bloat your ZODB as long as CMFEditons uses it as repository back-end.

Wicked support

PloneArticle is by default wicked aware. As usual, you just need to type ((some word)) to have it behave like a wiki word. If you don’t want this behaviour, you just need to edit implements.zcml and remove or comment the XML elements with wicked namespace.

Sorry for this complex stuff but there’s no easy way to do this TTW or through a config file.
