NoGi Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 How do you update a plug-in with the edittor? And has anyone been able to get this plug-in to work? I've got the pre-reqs installed but can't get the resize pointer to show http://ckeditor.com/addon/tableresize
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Upgrading: To update a plugin, just upload the updated zip file as if you were installing it for the first time in the ACP or.... Extract the contents of the zip file and upload via FTP to the corresponding plugin folder in applications\core\interface\ckeditor\ckeditor\plugins As for that plugin - works fine. Installed Table/Table Tools/Table Resize and works as expected.
NoGi Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 Hnmmm mine kept saying it's already installed but I was sure I had an older version. I'll have another look. What browser are you using for the resize? It can't seem to get it to work on Chrome/OSX.
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 IE/Firefox/Chrome/Waterfox all on Windows. Post a link to your forum, with test login credentials. 2 minutes ago, NoGi said: Hnmmm mine kept saying it's already installed but I was sure I had an older version. I'll have another look. If you do have an older version of an update plugin then report that as a bug - I've updated that way previously, but quite a few versions ago. You have the FTP option available, as mentioned.
NoGi Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 Great thanks. Must be a OSX and/or chrome thing then.
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Just throwing this out there - have you clicked in to table?
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 OK - can't see any reason why the plugin wouldn't work for you, but does for me. Does it work fine on the demo page for the plugin?
InsideEdge Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 I use chrome and don't see the pointers either. But I can hold the control and right click to alter the size.
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Looking at this further - it isn't actually working at all. I confused the functionality it provides with the main table resizing itself - the column resize with the mouse (ie hover the mouse over the border of a column until you see ) doesn't appear to work at all. I'll see what I can dig up. The pointers to resize the table don't appear in Chrome either - they do appear in other browsers. The options to resize the table/cells is still available as per @InsideEdge 's comment - press Ctrl then right click on the table to bring up the advances properties provided by Table Tools.
InsideEdge Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 @Nathan Explosion Do you know of a way to post a link from an image using the CKEditor?

Answered this elsewhere previously - double click the image and you will see a link URL field....populate that field with your link. 1 hour ago, Nathan Explosion said: The pointers to resize the table don't appear in Chrome either - they do appear in other browsers. Confirmed this issue on a non-IPS instance of ckeditor - chrome doesn't display the pointers. Found an old bug from 5 years ago which sheds a little light on it: https://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/6326 Still looking in to the issue with the column resizing.

NoGi Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 Thanks for the additional info, glad it wasn't just me lol I guess, the next question is how do I remove just that resize plug-in now without resetting everything? Do I just delete the files?
Nathan Explosion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 No, you can't uninstall a plugin at present. Do not delete the files, as you will trigger a javascript error and the editor will fail to load - the plugin will be referenced in the configuration and a failure to find the files will cause the editor load to fail. There is no issue with leaving it live - it just doesn't work....no other side effects. if you do want to get rid of it, then reset and reload.
InsideEdge Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 I tried upgrading the Tabletools plugin to a newer version, and I got an error that the plugin all ready exists. Is this still a bug? Anyone else successfully upgrade a toobar button?

Simply upload the new version via FTP to the relevant plugin folder: applications\core\interface\ckeditor\ckeditor\plugins\........... Or follow the instructions I already posted above: If you believe it to be a bug then log it as a bug.
