Best Practices WYSIWYG with inline image handling
I’d like to share with you a best-practice approach for setting up a secure, usable WYSIWYG editor in Drupal 7. I'll walk through all the necessary steps, and explain each layer of the Drupal content rendering system to help you get a solid grasp of what's actually going on. I'll also demonstrate several techniques for embedding images into your content using Drupal's built-in image styles, and even captions.
The session starts with stock Drupal and ends with a working WYSIWYG editor with inline image handling done in two different ways. It's definitely not a comprehensive overview, but does cover several approaches in great detail - one step at a time.
The modules I’ll be demonstrating include:
- WYSIWYG API
- Better Formats
- IMCE
- IMCE WYSIWYG API Bridge
- Insert
- Image Resize Filter
- Caption Filter
- and if there's time, maybe one of:
There's a lot to cover, but come see all the awesome things you can do in WYSIWYG that don't involve installing the Media module, yet. We'll also talk about the state of Media and when it's the right time to take the plunge.
Configuring WYSIWYG editors in Drupal is now more complicated than ever. Don't spend your time pulling your hair out, banging your head against your keyboard, and frantically googling for instructions on how to get everything to work nicely together. Instead, come to my session!

A great conference with full informations for WYSIWIG. Everthing you want to know is there
PS:Just a little bit to fast speaking ;-)
Doesn't seem to work as on D7, right? The TinyMCE with enabled Caption Filter Plugin and Input Format "WYSIWYG" with Caption-Filter enabled just does not anything? Is this not being backported or am I missing something?
although you really talked fast one could follow and you got a big package delivered in this session. thx jen!
I hadn't properly read the session description and had expected a more advanced session. Fault was my own, so I've decided not to submit an official evaluation.
Session was well presented as always, had a natural flow building up from the most basic to more intermediate options and seemed to be a really good fit with the intended target group.
Well done :-)
