Where is the CKEditor version displayed? - Cerulean - 2013-12-05

How do I find out which version of CKEditor is used in any given version of GetSimple? Is it stated anywhere in the backend? Or somewhere in the source?

Thanks.

You should be able to find it using the following path to the config file:
/admin/template/js/ckeditor/config.js

Add `about` to your toolbar

We only have 1 version of cke
I beleive it is CKEditor 3.5.2

Thanks.

@eatons: There's no version information in this file. But after trying shawn_a's suggestion and searching the source for the revision string it seems the version information appears within the compressed code in /admin/template/js/ckeditor/ckeditor.js
Near the top...
Code:
timestamp:'B8DJ5M3',version:'3.6.2',revision:'7275'
Not sure why they haven't put this in the comment at the top of the file where you would expect to find it.

@shawn_a: as above, it's actually v3.6.2. Would be great if the stable release could be updated to v3.6.6 or higher as a matter of urgency given the fact that the current stable release is unusable with IE10. I've found the patched 4.1 version over on GitHub and if this is adequately tested maybe it could become the official stable release.

Why is it unusable? Do you have a bug reference?


RE: Where is the CKEditor version displayed? - Cerulean - 2013-12-06

There are a number of issues with some earlier versions of CKEditor v3.x in IE10, the most serious being the Enter key doesn't work meaning paragraph returns and line breaks cannot be inserted, making it unusable in effect.

See:
http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/9719
http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/9741
Mostly fixed in this release: http://ckeditor.com/blog/CKEditor-3.6.6-Released
But better compatibility in v4.x I believe.

This has been raised in the GetSimple forums before so I thought it was known about.

This one is pretty bad also

Here test it out
https://github.com/GetSimpleCMS/GetSimpleCMS/tree/cke3.6.6

This will be in 3.3.1 for sure, if no bugs.

Seems to be working fine.

Although, what's the reason for using a v3.x of CKEditor in the next GS release when CKEditor is now at v4.3? I've installed the GS branch with CKEditor patched to v4.1 to fix a couple of client sites and it seems to be working well. Wouldn't that branch be the logical candidate for the next GS release?


RE: Where is the CKEditor version displayed? - shawn_a - 2013-12-06

Because that's not the release schedule. It's in 3.4 as of this moment. 3.3 is already way in beta.

GS 3.2.3 with CKEditor 4.1.1 http://getsimplecms.ru/samaya-prostaya-cms/ustanovka-getsimple-cms/
for advanced uncomment line 58 in file gsconfig.php
