Default initialization string
This new version uses a mostly stock initialization string with a few exceptions.
- convert_fonts_to_spans is set to true because we all should try to use font tags. This can be overridden in the init blocks.
- The TXPImage plugin replaces the standard image insert dialog. This can be overridden in the init blocks.
document_base_url is automatically set to the value of Site URL. This can be overridden, but should not be necessary. - mode is set to none so that the toggles work. This cannot be overridden or else the toggles will not work properly
Inserting images with TXPImage
TXPImage is a custom image browsing plugin that integrates into the TXP backend. It allows you to browse your image categories and insert either the thumbnail or full size images for each image. It is hopefully easy to use.
