Link Bynder Document using CKeditor

Created on 20 September 2021, almost 3 years ago
Updated 5 May 2023, about 1 year ago

I've tried using entity_embed ( https://www.drupal.org/project/entity_embed β†’ ) to link to a Bynder media type for bynder document and placed the embed widget into a ckeditor text formatter. I've configured it to use the bynder_document formatter but no link is generated. How are other's generating links to their Bynder document assets from the WYSIWYG? Does this seem like the correct pattern or is there a better way to embed links to Bynder documents?

    Actually wondering the same. It seems to me the bynder module is lacking any form of support on CKEDITOR or I'm totally missing it. The documentation is also only showing how to set Bynder up for image fields in combination with Drupal Media.

    A route I was trying is using Entity Embed in combination with Linkit Entity Browser ( https://www.drupal.org/project/linkit_entity_browser β†’ )

    The issue here is that Entity Embed is still not compatible with CKEDITOR5 (See ✨ Drupal 10 & CKEditor 5 readiness Fixed . There is a lot of work being done on that part but it's not yet stable. Second issue is that Linkit Entity Browser only supports CKEDITOR4 at the moment (see: πŸ“Œ Compatibility with CKEDITOR5 Active ) and there are a few issues related to Drupal 10 and schema issues.

    Bynder are media entities, you should be able to embed them through entity_embed for example, I don't think another integration into ckeditor is feasible.

    Also, in general, if there are features you need you should reach out to Bynder directly and talk with them about it, they don't really look at the issue queue.

    Thanks @Berdir πŸ˜‰ didn't know the last one. Unfortunately I don't have a direct contact with Bynder as it's my client who purchased the license through an authorised reseller.

    But it's great to have people like you on board 😁! I think indeed entity_embed in combination with something else like linkit entity browser is the way (and maybe this should be a documentation thing).
