Plugins in CKeditor

Hi

In the Editor Configurations there's a field "Extra plugins". I assume that it is for adding extra plugins/addons to CKEditor? I can't find any DW-documentation for that field.

If it is, then, according to the CKEditor 4 documentation, the following steps should add a plugin – but it doesn't:

  1. Download image2 from https://ckeditor.com/cke4/addon/image2 
  2. Create a folder and call it "plugins" in  /System/Editor/ckeditor/
  3. Unpack "image2" to "plugins"
  4. Add "image2" to "Extra plugins"-field
  5. Clear cache and reload a page with CKEditor
    ... watch CKEditor fail to load.

In my console I get a 404 because the file /Admin/Editor/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/image2/plugin.js doen't exist – which gives sense because I haven't uploaded the plugin to that folder..

It makes sense according to the CKEditor documentation, but on my All-In-One Express solution, I do not have access to /Admin/Editor/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/ - so my only option is to upload it to /System/Editor/ckeditor/ which would make sense.

Am I missing something?

Yes, you cannot do that on the Express.

You can however create your own config file and choose that in the editor settings - in the config file, you can use whatever path you need for the extension.
