How to Prevent TinyMCE from Wrapping MODX Tags with <p>?

[carlo_13]

Hi there.
I’m using TinyMCE Rich Text Editor, I really like it but it wraps MODX tags like [[$chunk?]] or [[+img.2]] with <p> tags, adding unnecessary code to my pages.
Is there a way to prevent that ?

Thanks a lot

@carlo_13

it wraps MODX tags like [[$chunk?]] or [[+img.2]] with <p> tags

What exactly do you mean by that?
That when you put the MODX tag on its own line, it gets put in a paragraph tag like every other line?

Maybe this helps if you want to remove the <p> tag for all the content:

TinyMCE RTE 'forced_root_block' setting prohibits pressing Enter

I want tinymcerte to automatically fill in line breaks (<br>) instead of new paragraphs (p) when the user presses enter in a richtext TV. According to the docs this can be done by setting: forced_root_block: false. I’ve done so in the system settings, but now pressing enter doesn’t do anything at all. Shift + Enter still works (and produces a line break). Any ideas on this? MODX 2.8.1-pl TinyMCE Rich Text Editor 1.4.0-pl

If you want to remove only the <p> tags around MODX tags, then you probably have to write a custom plugin for that.

Hi @halftrainedharry and thanks a lot!
It seems like {"forced_root_block" : false} did the trick.

Do you have any preference between TinyMCE and CKEditor ? Which one is recommended by Modx ?
