Hi there,
Can't find a read more icon on the toolbar. Is it there somewhere? If not, can it be added somehow?
Thanks

Hi Kiwi2b

The Joomla read-more xtd-button can be found at the bottom of the editor after the page-break button and media button as shown in the attached image of the Article Manager.

However, it should be noted that these buttons do not display in categories or sections by default in Joomla. This is due to the fact that you only use the read more tags for articles in the blog views provided by Joomla.

Regards

Thanks for the quick reply. Would a custom made icon that sits in the toolbar be a possibility?

Hi kiwi2b,

Yes it is possible to make a custom JCK plugin to add the readmore tag. However it should be noted that this WILL NOT work with categories and sections as Joomla does not create the readmore link for them. And futher more the data structure is not set up beacsue they dont have an introtext and fulltext field as the article table. However, it is possible to implement with custom development of the joomla system but out of the box Joomla does not provide that function.

Could you please specify and expand more on why you want this feature?

if you still want this feature for custom development please see: >
CKEditor Development Work for more info.

My users are very likely to prefer a very simple layout. By putting all the controls in one toolbar, it should make it easier for them.
Thanks for the thoughts.

Hi cyrilpo,

At the moment we are building and testing a joomla 1.6 compatible version of the JCK editor and Manager so that is top on our piroity list.

However, if you would like us to custom build a readmore plugin please feel welcome to contact us at: www.webxsolution.com/contact detailing your exact requirements and we will make arrangements to build your plugin.

Yes, it's nice to make a plugin readmore integrated at the JCK Editor toolbar. And we can disable the function button readmore joomla.

I hope it. thanks.
