Joy Rex Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I'm trying to use the official Media Embed plugin from CKEditor: https://ckeditor.com/cke4/addon/embed The plugin installs fine, but when I attempt to paste in a URL, it fails - a dialog pops up saying it "failed to fetch content for the given URL". I've tried lots of URLs, both that use OEmbed (which I know is required) and those who do not, but nothing works. Any ideas? Related, I am trying to create a custom button that will accept multiple values - I seem to remember being able to do this with the old custom BBCode options in 3.4.x, but the custom editor button only allows {option} and {content}. Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 For #1 I'd probably inspect the browser developer tools to see what's happening. Unfortunately I couldn't say why it isn't working offhand. For #2 - {option} is not meant to be a literal value, but rather represent the option the user chose. So for instance, if you have a button that accepts an option and a content, it might in effect create something like <font color='{option}'>{content}</font> where {optino} could be red, blue, green, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the {option} value - I know how to use it; my issue was having more than one {option} available, so if several values were required (e.g., {$1} and {$2} for width and height for example) the user could enter them. It was possible with the old custom BBCode feature in 3.4.x - how can I achieve this in 4.x? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I don't recall supporting more than one option with custom bbcode in 3.4.x but you're talking a decade ago. There's no built in manner of accepting more than one option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
