Removing configuration from bullet lists in TinyMC...

07/12/2023, 11:57 AMSo i have a hard time removing the styling options from bullet lists in tinyMCE. I would only like to give the editor the options to insert a basic bullet list, not a square or hollow one.
I looks like the "presentation" in tinmyMCE is enabled by a "advanced list" plugin. https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/6/advlist/
But I have no idea how to remove a plugin? Its not configurable on the data type in the backoffice

07/12/2023, 12:31 PMSeems like it's a bug in umbraco... even though i add the following to appsettings:
Copy code
"RichTextEditor": {
"Plugins": [ "anchor", "charmap", "table", "lists", "autolink", "directionality", "searchreplace" ],
},Pluginspublic string[] Plugins { get; set; } = Default_plugins;s

@Sebastiaan I actually made a PR to fix it in umbraco https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/14547 but as Mike hinted it might be a breaking change?
I can see how it would be, but also i would argue that it was intended to be customizable, IDK

07/13/2023, 7:43 AMYeah that's super breaking. But maybe we just introduce new public methods instead to fix this. I am sure right now you could replace the whole
RichTextEditorSettingsa

07/13/2023, 8:00 AMhmmm could be yeah ?
Aleksander Fjellvang
07/13/2023, 8:51 AMhmm atleast
services.Configure<RichTextEditorSettings>(x => x.Plugins = new[] { "table", "code" });s

07/13/2023, 8:53 AMHmm.. can't replace the class? guess it's not an interface, because it was never meant to be public

07/13/2023, 8:53 AMMore config options are never the answer (almost.. never)

07/13/2023, 8:55 AMNo i agree, I'm just stumped on how to fix it so it won't be a breaking change?
Even though I'm sure the original developer meant for the Plugins to be replaceable. Since it works with the default initializer for a string setting.

07/13/2023, 9:55 AMah but i could do
Copy code
services.Configure<RichTextEditorSettings>(x =>
{
x.Plugins = new[] { "anchor", "charmap", "table", "lists", "autolink", "directionality", "searchreplace" };
x.Commands = new[] { new RichTextEditorSettings.RichTextEditorCommand() { Alias = "bullist", Mode = RichTextEditorCommandMode.Insert, Name = "Bullet list" } };
});s
