In ckeditor, when textarea has notext, outdent icon is being disabled. I researched but can't find any solution (I Know that I couldn't look at right where :) ).
How can I do available this icon?
At ckeditor's web-site this icon is available. (http://ckeditor.com/addon/tweetabletext at the bottom of page-comment area)
Thanks..
As written on the Indent plugin page, the indenting functionality is split into two parts: indenting lists and indenting blocks, both handled by separate plugins.
The CKEditor package that you use apparently contains only the Indent and Indent List plugins, but does not contain the Indent Block plugin, so the buttons are disabled for text blocks. See the installation packages comparison here. Download another preset (Full) or use CKBuilder to add the missing plugin to your package and create a custom build.

I've read the doc and tried the demo, but I can't tell the difference between the built in undo/redo and the History plugin.
The default buttons are:
['undo', 'redo'],
The plugin buttons are:
['historyUndo','historyRedo'],
I've now noticed two differences:
With the plugin, the undo/redo buttons are greyed out and unclickable if there are no changes to undo or redo, which is a good improvement. The default undo/redo buttons are not greyed out.
With the plugin, it one undo/redo removes or re-adds whole words. The default does a single character or a few characters at a time, seemingly inconsistently.
Curiously, if both the default and plugin buttons are displayed, then clicking either of the default undo/redo buttons will make the plugin's undo button clickable as if there is a change to undo.
When I delete the Format combobox in toolbar, CKEditor deletes my own formatting.
I would like to use formatting as separate buttons. Is that even possible?
CKEditor by default has some filter rules, which prevent of having trash in output HTML.
When you add a plugin, then such plugin usually register set of rules which are necessary for its work. E.g. When you add an image plugin then <img> tags starts to be allowed in editor contents.
So when you remove formatting plugin, then most probably you also remove those filtering rules. That's why your formatting is removed from the editor. You can add your own custom rules with: extraAllowedContent.
I don't know how are you going to add separate buttons with formatting, but in case of creating your own plugin you can also register proper filter rules inside your plugin code.
I am building a simple forum on my website using CKEditor as a BBCode editor. I managed to make CKEditor output BBCode just fine by following the example.
However, I do not want to use the 'WYSIWYG' interface. I just want a plain "bbcode source" editor. The WYSIWYG output is not exactly the same as how the output will look on my forum (because I translate the bbcode to html myself and then apply some additional styling) and I don't really like the difference. More importantly, I have a couple "custom bbcode" tags that make no sense outside of my forum and obviously CKEditor doesn't know what to do with them, so I get a mix of bbcode and WYSIWYG output which looks odd.
I can force the CKEditor into 'source mode' by setting the startupMode and removing the source button, but when I do that it disables the entire toolbar!
I want to work in source mode, but still use the various buttons like B, I, etc. When such a button is pressed I just want it to insert the [b] [/b] tags for example around the selected text.
This is pretty much how every forum I've ever seen works, but I can't figure out how to configure CKEditor to do this.
Unfortunately it's impossible. Most of the plugins require WYSIWYG mode and don't work without it.
However you could try to control the output of the editor and change it according to your needs by adjusting editor's filter or implementing custom data processor.
I am editing an article and adding FontAwesome in it using Toggle Editor. I've found out that when I add the code using programmer view, it works fine. However, when I change to the designer view from the programmer view, the editor automatically edit the code like this:
Before:
After clicking "Toggle Editor":
It is quite inconvenient for me because I use the designer view to style the article frequently. Is there any solution for it?
You'll have to look into the allowed tags for the editor you're using.
In your case using JCK Editor - you can see this article on why it removes certain code
At first glance it appears there are whitelist & blacklists for some HTML. You'll probably be able to add your selectors to the whitelist and they will no longer get stripped.
When writing the HTML part of a page in a VS2008 Web App, the editor keeps formatting the HTML with linebreaks that break the readability of the code (to my eyes).
Can this feature be disabled?
Thanks
Have you tried Tools/Options/Text Editor/HTML ?
Tool/Options/
[Show all settings]
Text Editor/HTML
Wrap tags when exceeding specified lenght
If any interested.
You're probably looking at the Tag Wrapping option inside the Text Editor -> HTML options under the text editor settings. You can either disable it altogether or extend it beyond the 80 character default.
However, there is still some level of code reformatting that happens behind the scenes when you drag new controls into the page that I haven't found any solution to other than just staying in the text editor as much as possible.
Two good things to note: 1. VS2K8 does a MUCH better job that VS2K5 when it comes to formatting HTML. 2. With the new intellisense built into VS2K8, it makes it really easy to stay in the text editor while adding tags. I think I do most of my HTML stuff there now. You can keep your display in "split view" and just refresh every now and then to see how your controls are coming up.
