CKEditor Plugins Documentation

Question

Hi!

I looked on CKEditor's website and I noticed that there's no plugins documentation yet.

But I'm wondering if there is any anywhere else?

I'd like to make a little plugin to add youtube video from CKEditor. Pretty simple plugin but still I'd like to know how to make it.

Thanks a lot!

Documentation is sparse at the moment, but not completely non-existent.

Check out my CKEDitor link survival pack from a previous question.

As a starting point, you may want to copy and use one of the existing plugins (the unpacked ones from the _source directory, of course).

• The symbols plugin is extremely simple but shows the basic points of inserting HTML into the editor

• The links plugin may be a good starting point for how to add input fields, tabs, and make them interact (If you want to go the road of understanding CKEditor's highly sophisticated dialog layout system, that is. My cup of tea, it wasn't. You may want to just set up an Iframe dialog, and do everything by yourself).
