umbraco tiny mce absolute urls

Question

i'm having a issue on tiny mce on umbraco 6.

When i add a image or link on tinymce the urls are converted from

http://domainx.com/images/someimage.png

to

domainx.com/images/someimage.png

i've added a few configurations to tinyMceConfig.config

<config key="relative_urls">false</config>
<config key="convert_urls">false</config>
<config key="remove_script_host">false</config>

but now url's are created without the http or https wich results in wrong path and we can't see the images on the tinymce.

Which (exact) version are you using? – dampee Aug 23 '14 at 20:29 — dampee, Aug 23 '14 at 20:29

Did you configure any hostname on any node? If so, add the missing part.

right click on the root node of your website and choose "hostname and culture" – dampee Aug 25 '14 at 22:01

What you are describing is a function of TinyMCE and not Umbraco itself. I don't have enough "Rep" to comment, otherwise I would ask what version of TinyMCE is installed/running in your version of Umbraco.

However, while it would appear as though you are on the correct path with your configurations, the documentation (http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:FAQ) says you need to simply add "convert_urls = false" to the customConfig section of tinyMceConfig.config (like below), the Umbraco community appears to be reporting it as a bug (http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-374).

<customConfig>
    <config key="convert_urls">false</config>
    ...
</customConfig>

Have you tried using //www.example.com rather than http://www.example.com as a possible workaround?

It is possible to do custom configuration settings for TinyMCE in umbraco (documentation).

I couldn't find a correct documentation for changing settings, which are of the type boolean, to false. After a while and changing some settings I needed, i've found a way to do it! Just leave the value empty in the customConfig-section:

<customConfig>
    <config key="convert_urls"></config>
</customConfig>

This resulted in being able to enter (almost) anything as a link, without it being converted.
