Textpattern / TinyMCE plugin AND header + footer inclusion

Hi People,

TinyMCE gives people with less knowledge of HTML the option to create and maintain there own pages. I want to implement Textpattern + TinyMCE in future websites.

At this moment i create pages like this:

<txp:output_form form=“header” />

<h2>Page</h2>
<p>This is a page</p>

<txp:output_form form=“footer” />

My question is:
Is it possible to use TinyMCE as well as Textile for the inclusion of a header and footer ‘sections’?

Tia,

Sietse, Netherlands.

Re: Textpattern / TinyMCE plugin AND header + footer inclusion

Do you need to add the header and footer in TinyMCE, or can you do it in a Page Template? ie:

<txp:output_form form=“header” />

<txp:article />

<txp:output_form form=“footer” />

this way you just write your articles using tinymce and it gets wrapped in the header and footer.

If you need to use txp tags in tinymce it’s a little trickier but it can be done

Sietse, you don’t need to employ the classic way of using output_form, you can put an article tag in your page template and use it as header/footer. Just set the related article to “sticky” so it won’t show up in your normal articles streams and use a tag like this <txp:article_custom status="sticky" id="enter-article-id-here" form="header-elements" /> to pull it onto the page.
