Issue Summary
Hello!
I've written the counter plugin to count symbols (with and without blank symbols) and words for CKEditor. It uses jQuery so it will be suitable only for the sites with this library included, like Drupal based sites. It is attached to this issue - hope it will be usefull for the community and you might want to include it with the module (and to improve it if possible - for now it refreshes the counter on dataReady, blur and focus events).
Code to include it into the settings of CKEditor profile using custom module would be:
<?php
/**
* Implements hook_ckeditor_plugin().
*/
function MYMODULE_ckeditor_plugin() {
$path = drupal_get_path('module', 'MYMODULE');
return array(
'counter' => array(
'name' => 'counter',
'desc' => t('Plugin to count number of words and symbols'),
'path' => $path . '/plugins/counter/',
),
);
}
?>Thanks

Hi,
Really thx for this plugin...
Do u agree to add this to CKEditor module?
I think also what to do with counter refresh when writing... maybe sth like counter update on every 5 seconds when writing or sth like that?
Greetings

Hi,
Sure, let's add it to the CKEditor module - it will be really good addition.
As for the counter refresh - I tried to do it on the 'key' event of CKEditor (then it will update on every new symbol), but it then consumes too much resources. We might want to do the refresh on the 'saveSnapshot' event or smth similar. I don't feel like doing it through setTimeout function will be a good way to go. May be CKEditor experts would suggest some other events to do the refresh.
Thanks

Hello! Is it possible to translate the strings?
Like...
<?phpvar symbols_wo_blanks = text.length;
var placeholders = {
'@symbols': symbols,
'@symbols_wo_blanks': symbols_wo_blanks,
'@words': words
}
var countOutput = Drupal.t('@symbols / @symbols_wo_blanks symbols; @words words', placeholders);
space.setHtml( '<span class="cke_counter" style="float: right">' + countOutput + '</span>' );
}
?>
Thanks for this great plugin!
