About this extension

Aijko_WidgetImageChooser introduces a new field type widgetimagechooser/chooser in the widget declaration to use the standard Magento image chooser in widgets as well.

Installation

This extension is available as a modman package so just clone it in your project or install via MagentoConnect here http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/widget-image-chooser-7129.html

How-To

Just use widgetimagechooser/chooser as the type when declaring the widget:

<image>
    <label>Image</label>
    <type>widgetimagechooser/chooser</type>
</image>

Example widget.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<widgets>
    <widget_sample type="custom/widget" translate="label description" module="your_custom">
        <name>Test Widget</name>
        <parameters>
            <title>
                <label>Title</label>
                <required>1</required>
                <visible>1</visible>
                <type>text</type>
                <sort_order>10</sort_order>
            </title>
            <text>
                <label>Text</label>
                <required>1</required>
                <visible>1</visible>
                <type>textarea</type>
                <sort_order>20</sort_order>
            </text>
            <image>
                <label>Image</label>
                <required>1</required>
                <visible>1</visible>
                <type>widgetimagechooser/chooser</type>
                <sort_order>30</sort_order>
            </image>
        </parameters>
    </widget_sample>
</widgets>

Image preview when adding a new image

When choosing a new image, the preview is not displayed (only after reloading the page).

This might be a local issue for me - does this also happen for you?

Add support for WYSIWYG editor to textarea fields

Although this module is clearly intended just to add the Image Upload functionality, there is a similar requirement to allow administrators to use the WYSIWYG editor when working with widget textareas.

Would you like to see that functionality added to this module or would you like it to be separate?

There are a couple of approaches e.g. http://mario-behrendt.de/2013/04/12/using-a-wysiwyg-editor-in-a-magento-widget/ and http://stackoverflow.com/a/15953843/336905 which can be reviewed

If you are happy to see the WYSIWYG added to this module, we will fork and add it.

Remove leading slashes in modman file

Better remove the leading slash before the target paths in the modman file. Otherwise "modman deploy" will generate broken symlinks if the path in .basdir is specified with a subsequent slash (I have seen this in various installations).

Without the leading slashes in both cases (regarding the basedir path definition) the "modman deploy" command will generate working symlinks.

Register composer package

Hi Gerrit,

can you create a packagist.org account and register the package there?

What is the license?

I am just creating a composer.json for you and was wondering what is the license of the module? OSL-3.0 ?

Solved. Please delete.

No Magento 1.9.3 compatibility

Hi there,

I have just tried to use your extension with Magento 1.9.3, but the image upload buttons are not showing (image browsing works though).
I tried it with Magento 1.9.2.4 and that works fine.

Just wanted to let you know. Maybe you can find a fix for it?
