CKeditor developers?

[opentype]

With the media tag editor gone, I now have to pay someone to recreate things I could set up for free and by myself in 3.4. *sigh*

Do we have any developers here who are familiar with developing CKeditor plugins?

CKEditor plugins: http://ckeditor.com/addons/plugins/all

Thanks. I know these and I like the fact that we can now install those 3rd-party plugins. However, I need to (re-)create custom editor functionalities, not those for general use.

Depending on the media type, you may not need to create a ckeditor plugin.  You can write a Suite plugin that extends the text parser class to add more oembed and other embeddable media checks.

That could work as well. So I modify my request:

I am willing to pay for a custom 4.0 plugin that recreated my custom 3.4 Media Tag. It recognizes this link structure:

http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/{1}/{2}/{3}/?meta=/{4}/{5}/{6}

And creates this HTML output in the editor:

<div class="specimen">
<img src="http://apicdn.myfonts.net/v1/fontsample?idtype=styleid&width=1400&bg=eeeeee&border=16&behaviour=resize&id=$4&text=$5" alt="$6" title="$6" class="myfontssample"></a><br>
<img class="myfontsdesc" src="http://apicdn.myfonts.net/v1/fontsample?idtype=styleid&width=1400&bg=eeeeee&id=235959&border=4&size=40&text=$6" alt="$6" title="$6">
<br /><a href="http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/$1/$2/">download at MyFonts</a></div>

It shouldn't be too difficult to write your own CKEditor plugin by modifying their sample abbreviation plugin. I'm not a javascript developer, myself, but this looks fairly easy to follow:

​Yeah, I already looked at that, but there is still a lot to learn and it could mean countless hours of trial and error. I also found, that you can very easily break the whole editor with tiny mistakes in one plugin. 

I would much rather avoid all that and pay a professional for a robust and hassle-free solution. 

(Or have IPS bring back what they made possible in 3.4)

The IPS4 text parser is already able to convert URLs into content - you don't need a CKEditor plugin. Here you go:  MyFonts.xml.zip (Upload at ACP > Plugins).
