CKEditor 4 inline editing with drupal 7

You try to use CKEditor 4 beta without module for drupal just in your custom theme , am I right ?
What problems do you have with this.

@Taesto,
thank you for sharing this information :)

"I use ajax to save to node the modifications."

Could you explain how you accomplished this?

Looking forward to inline editing. Think that will be a massive improvement to the back-end Drupal can provide.

Thanks!

@giorez,
we are working on this. Please remember that CKEditor library is still in beta.

"I use ajax to save to node the modifications."

Could you explain how you accomplished this?

Yes, that would be the trickiest thing ;)

I've add support of CKEditor v4 in CKEditor module - #1847662: [D7] Add support for CKEditor v4.
Any help to review this will be appreciated.

Greetings

So support for v4 inline editing capabilities has been added but it's not yet fully usable? I'd really like to be able to give clients this functionality.

@kingfisher, it is added support for CKEditor 4 - to work like CKEditor 3... I think inline editing is not possible here because Drupal 7 not support sth like this - maybe it's some module to do that but i don't know any...

I only know that is project called Spark (link) and this is standalone Drupal version for inline editing, but is still in development...

Greetings

@dczeperiga - many thanks for clearing that up. I've tried http://drupal.org/project/aloha, http://drupal.org/project/edit, raptor (http://drupal.org/project/1791154/git-instructions), http://drupal.org/project/editablefields with only editable field stably working with d7.17 (this doesn't provide full functionlity inline styling).

@Taesto - how did you get this working with "I use ajax to save to node the modifications". Would you mind posting the code here so others could use your solution?

Thank you

@dczepirga "Not Possible" is wholly inaccurate, as shown earlier in this thread people do have it working, including inline editing. The question is how. Currently it would take messing with Drupal's ajax which is way out of my depth. Of course just building it into the module is the ideal solution, so I think it's a feature request -- but I assume it's fairly safe to say it's already on the rader (sure hope so anyway).

Maybe just add the inline edit for title could be good, and it is easy (just hook up with the $title_prefix, like contextual links), but then there is no interest for a WYSIWYG editor when it comes to editting a title ;)

Therefore, inline editing would be a nice feature request, but I don't think there are someone who is willing to invest in a general solution in this issue queue. The Spark team focus on D8 now, so there won't be a solution for D7 before D8 is out. Then when D8 is out, D7 will be left behind :P

If Taesto is kind enough to share this information like just suggested could it be built into the module?

There is no inline editing solution in drupal 7 - at all. Aloha & edit are just not stable and the developers are not in a hurry to fix critical issues to make it work now. I wrote to the module devoloper of raptor and he suggested he was waiting for ckeditor 4.

removed/edited comment as this request would be more appropriate under edit/aloha.

The Edit module will work with CKEditor but through the CKEditor for WYSIWYG Module, see this issue: #1873500: CKEditor + Edit

The Edit ( 7.x-1.0-alpha11+1-dev) module now works beautifully with the CKEditor module, too! :)

NB: I tested it with 7.x-1.13 (the latest recommended version) I did not change the version in this post since I do not want to hijack the thread, and hope it will work even with 7.x-1.9! If anybody wants to test it...

It is done with Edit module at #1879832: Edit module integration with CKEditor. Nothing else to do with CKEditor module then.
