Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

If you are not a developer, there is one Telerik Control you can use very easily.  That's the Telerik RadEditor.
Joe Audette has a product for sale almost free $9.00 the "mojoRadGlue Editor Provider" here.  This product allows you to use Telerik RadEditor in mojoPortal.

You must have purchased the Telerik Suite of just that control to make it work.  But Joe's provider will allow you to use the Telerik RadEditor to edit all your existing mojoPortal html text using the Telerik RadEditor instead of using the free HTML editors that come with mojoPortal.  The Telerik Editor is much more robust than the other Editors and I love using it.

As far as using other Telerik Controls in native mojoPortal or in new mojoPortal features/modules that you can create, yes you can, but then you must be a fairly decent ASP.NET developer to be able to make that work.  Joe Audette and myself and other developers that frequent these forums have all created Custom mojoPortal features/modules using many Telerik products.

Hope this helps.

Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

I just want to add one statement to what I said above.

I am not being rude, it's just a fact.

There is no ASP.NET CMS built today that will allow non-developers to globally add or swap complex controls from Telerik, Infragistics, DXperience, ComponentArt, ComponentOne, etc.

I just wanted it to be clear that this was not a mojoPortal deficiency.

Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

Thanks Joe

I just ordered your new mojoRadGlue Menu Wrapper for Telerik.  Wonderful and Great Deal for us Telerik Buffs!  Going to try it out today.

I see you have added Google Checkout as a new payment method in your store.  Only the third time I've used it.  Nice to have options other than PayPal.

Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

Thanks Rick!

Actually the google checkout has been there all along since the first day I opened the store on this site, its just that you can't use it to "Buy Joe a Beer" because google terms of service don't allow you to receive donations through google checkout unless you are a verified non-profit organization. So if anyone adds a beer to the cart the google checkout is disabled because that product is marked as a donation to make sure we don't run afoul of the google checkout terms of service.

Best,

Joe

Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

With the Telerik RadEditor and Artisteer skins, the Bottom_texture.jpg shows up as the background in the RadEditor.  In this case a floral arrangement.  Yuk.

In the style-artisteer-overrides.css I see there is over-rides to stop this.

/* this keeps the background images out of the editor and dialog pages */

However this does not appear to work for the Telerik RadEditor.

Any possibility of a fix I can add?

Thanks

Re: Can i use telerik with mojoportal?

Hi Rick,

The open source editors all provide a way to add a custom class to the body of the page loaded inside the iframe for the editor. I spent some time this morning trying to find out if it was also possible with RadEditor but came up empty.

So, whereas for other editors we can turn of background images like this if needed:

body.wysiwygeditor
{
background-image: none;
background-color: #36535E;
}

we can't do that in RADEditor because we can't add the wysiwygeditor class to the body of the page in the iframe.

So, you would have to do it the way we used to do it, by basically harvesting the body background from style.css and then add it in style-artisteer-overrides.css like this:

body.pagebody { add the background here so it will still show in the page }

body { remove it here so it won't show in the editor}

Best,

Joe
