First, a great thanx for this tool!
It could be a very best way to manage the wysiwyg editors.
But I'm a little lost between all the patches and the few parameters offered by WYSIWYG comparing to the Editor's Modules alone (FCKeditor for example).
For example, I'd like to use the last CKeditor (only support on dev version of Wysiwyg if I have correctly understood), with a tool to upload images. I have tried IMCE/IMCE_wysiwyg_bridge: no way, after a patch to have the IMCE button on CKeditor, no possibilities to upload images in the IMCE window. I've returned to FCKeditor to see if it works better: same thing no possibilities to upload.
I've tried WYSIWYG_image_upload which seems really better than IMCE: no way again, it doesn't work.
So I'm asking to myself if it's the moment to take Wysiwyg as solution to do it: I'm really tented because of his facilities of managing (Libraries) and the possibilities to change/dispatch different editors.
But if it can't do it correctly for now, I have to return to the CKeditor (or FCK) module to have my features.
So, can you tell me, please, when do you think all these problems will be solved and patches implemented in the last official version? I dont' want to be boring, I know that is a very difficult and long job, but I need to know if I can hope a solution by this way or not.
If not, I'll wait a mature version of all of these great tools to implemented them on my websites.
Is anyone have an idea to have Wysiwyg/CKeditor/Wysiwyg_image_upload working correctly?
Thanx to all.

twodYes, Wysiwyg 6.x-2.x-dev (which will become the 2.1 release) supports CKEditor (including 'native' and 'Drupal' plugins to the same amount as FCKeditor does).
Have a look at #652410: Wysiwyg 2.1 for a rough estimate of what will happen before 2.1 is released.
I don't know when IMCE Wysiwyg Bridge or WYSIWYG ImageUpload module will get a new release, but it should not be too hard to get this working using their dev snapshots and a patch.
IMCE Wysiwyg Bridge uses editor-specific code ('native' plugins) to invoke the IMCE dialog and let it know where it should place the url to the selected image, thus each new editor supported by Wysiwyg module will require more code in IMCE WB. The latest incarnation of the code to do this for CKEditor is in #533168-34: Add support for CKeditor (comment 34). It may not be pretty to look at but works. Apply the patch to IMCE WB 6.x-1.x-dev and you should get the "browse" button in CKEditor's image dialog, just like in TinyMCE or FCKeditor. If not, I'm sure they'll appreciate the feedback in that issue.
I just talked to EugenMayer about wysiwyg_imageupload and he says he hasn't yet confirmed that his module works with CKEditor. But considering wysiwyg_imageupload is written to be editor-independent - it's a 'Drupal' plugin utilizing only Wysiwyg module's API to talk to editors - you should already be able to see the toolbar button and be able to use it. (If not, create an issue for wysiwyg_imageupload).
I hope that helped and not just added to the confusion. ;)

eugenmayer commentedHello,
well actually Twod is right concerning the wysiwyg_imageupload module. It is aimed to support every editor supported by the WYSIWYG module and it differs in how it does compared to the IMCE plugin. It only uses editor unspecific code + the WYSIWYG API bridge to actually "talk" to the editor you use right now.
As i can confirm the dialog worked with 2 / 2 editors i tried (tinymce/fckeditor) and the ckeditor should be close the fckeditor, i suggest that using the wysiwyg dev module with the current wysiwyg_imageupload module should work. If not, write me an issue. Iam not 100% sure but i think someone even tried it allready.

mattwmc commentedWYSIWYG image upload doesn't work with CKeditor for me. -- Or I just don't see an option to "Configure the WYSIWYG Module and edit your editors profile. Enable the "Image uploading" Plugin in the profile" in any of the CKeditor settings.
Maybe I'll try tinymce.
Comment #5
eugenmayer commentedWYSIWYG image upload works pretty fine with CKeditor - iam using it.
Comment #7
jeffsawyer commentedI'm having issues with CKeditor and Image Upload as well. There's 2 problems.
1) Images get renamed to something like [[wysiwyg_imageupload:2:]] when previewed or saved, but show up fine in the editor.
2) Images can't be resized within the editor... Well, they can be, but saving doesn't save the resize.
Any ideas? Am I just missing a setting?
Thanks,
Jeff

jeffsawyer commentedSo, I noticed that if I right click on the image in ckeditor and in advanced options remove all the class information, the images work fine.. Resizing, everything... Not exactly an easy work-flow though. What's the better fix for this?
Comment #9
haikubear commentedjeffsawyer - Your issue is due to the fact that the wysiwyg_image_upload module installs a new "Input filter" which it requires in order to function. However, it does not enable it - this is your job.
1. Navigate to /admin/settings/filters and click "configure" for each format you use on your site.
2. On the following screen, enable "Drupal Wiki inline-images."
3. Clear all caches.
That will do it.

eugenmayer commentedThank you for all the support haikubear!

anne1960 commentedI have the same issue with the image uploads. Where do I find this exactly? in config - wysiwyg? - I have the ckeditor
Comment #13
twod@anne1960, it's hard to know exactly which issue you're having since this got transformed from a general support request "It doesn't work, what do I do?"-issue by the original poster to "Why do my images look like [[wysiwyg_imageupload:2:]]?" by a different user.
If you're having the second problem, see #9.
If it's something else then please create a new support request (this one is already "fixed/answered/solved") and include as much information you can about your site that may seem relevant. Error messages, additional plugins, theme-specific issues, installed Wysiwyg and editor versions, things like that.
