1.5. Configuration

Just  install the RTE over the Extension Manager or download the .t3x-package from typo3.org (Extension-Key: tinyrte).

Please make sure, that no other RTE is running. Deinstall some other RTE before you install tinyRTE.

While installing you can a little bit configure RTE:

Option

Description

Styles

You can give here a CSS-File that contains Stylesheets. Later i will show  you to select one out of this file to provide in the RTE. But make sure this styles are available in FE, too.

RTE-Width

This is the initial width of the RTE in Backend.

RTE-Height

Similar to RTE-Width.

Visible Buttons

You can define here the 4 possible rows of the RTE. You can do this in the “old” way per handwork (see Button-List later) or by using the Configurator on tinyrte.outraxx.de. A semicolon separates the 4 rows, a pipe define a Separator and a comma separate the buttons.

Entities

You can give here some entities to use instead of characters

Fonts

Available fonts in the fontlist of the RTE. Example: font_family1=font1,font2,font3; font_family2=font1,font2,font3

Date-Format

The Format used by insert the Date via plugin “datetime”, button date. For naming see some php-manual.

Time-Format

Similar to Date-Format.

Invalid elements

Tags you don´t wont have in the source of the RTE-Content. It will be filtered.

force_p_newlines

This option enables you to disable/enable the creation of paragraphs on return/enter in Mozilla/Firefox. The default value of this option is true.

force_br_newlines

If you set this option to true, tinyRTE will force BR elements on newlines instead of inserting paragraphs.

convert_newlines_to_brs

If you set this option to true newline characters codes gets converted in to br elements.

convert_fonts_to_spans

If you set this option to true the <font>-Tag will be replaced as <span>.

Resizing

This option gives you the ability to enable/disable the resizing button.

Resizing horizontal

This option gives you the ability to enable/disable the horizontal resizing.

Use compressed Script

Serverside GZip compresses TinyMCE to reduce overall download size. Makes TinyMCE 75% smaller and a lot faster to load.

Notice: You can override all these options in TSconfig. This is the simple way to copy one configuration between other Typo3-Instances. See Table above (“Administration”).
