[Pro] WebYep and css

Freeway
1

I have read everything I can find on WebYep using a rich text editor, but no matter what I try I cannot get any of the recommended editors to recognize a non-standard style sheet.
My style sheet is named wepyep_style.css.
It is connected to a WebYep rich text element with the “enable a non standard style sheet” checked with the path css/webyep_style.css.
The file webyep_style.css appears correctly in the css folder.
RTE (or Tiny MCE or any I’ve tried) open fine - but do not connect to the css file and instead offer all kinds of formatting I do not want.
What am I doing wrong???

Jan,

I`m not sure if I recommend you the best way to do - but to my experience, I solved it the following way:

Freeway: in the rich-text-action point to the css you like.

TinyMCE: I work with a so called tinymce_init.php. In there I have the possibility, to point as well to this .css eg.

content_css : “http://www.urlblahblah/css/webyepstyles.css”

If you want to go one step ahead, you add another line:

theme_advanced_styles : “Headline=headline;Subline=subline”

This will bring your defined styles chosable in the styles menu. Before the quotes is what you can choose, behind the quotes is the stylename in your .css.

Well as said, it might be a bit tricky, maybe not recommended, but it works for me.

Thanks for the reply - but just where does this “init” file go? Can a relative link be used to test it out locally?

I really like RTE the best with its slimmed down toolbar with fewer choices. Any suggestions for my css to work with it? If so, can you explain it like you’re talking to a 5 year old with no knowledge of PHP please?

I’m sure Tiny MCE has a slimmed down version as well, but documentation on any of these editors seems to assume the user knows a lot more than I do - the reason I’m using Freeway in the 1st place - I’m a designer, not a coder. That’s why it was so disappointing when the wonderful step by step documentation (complete with photos form dummies like me) that came with the Freeway WebYep Action manual did not work.

Hi jan
at the moment only TinyMCE and from 1.4.6 CKeditor can use an extra style sheet.
if you have a link that I can see then I can have a look at it for you
