Hi StackIdeas
On our website we have installed Easyblog (newest version), and setup an nice template for our client to use.

Since my client are copy/pasting a lot from Word-documents and other MS-applications, we're facing a lot of problems with inline-styling.

We've not been able to find any solution for this.

If we use JCE Editor, this editor has the option to select what inline styling that should be 'inactive' and what should be 'inactive' when copy/pasting from Word.

But if we use JCE-editor - we can't use your templates, since its not integrated with your system

Don't you have any solution for this?

Looking forward hearing from you.

Regards
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Currently that was no better solution for this yet in the build-in composer is because MS Word word formatting/code snippets is a little different, it can't render the correct word formatting in the composer.

Unless you switch the editor to use JCE, I believe there got a feature where you can insert the MS word content into that pop box, it will render correctly into your blog.

Hi Arlex

And thank you for answering.

The problem is, that if i change the editor to JCE, how can i then pre-define the Easyblog template?

It will not allow me to make these templates unless i choose to use the build-in composer?

You're welcome Jesper.

Actually that was default behaviour if you switch to use JCE editor, the `add blocks` feature will not available in Joomla editor, because Joomla editor do not know how to render the `Easyblog build-in composer ` blocks HTML structure.

I believe JCE editor can achieve what you do in `build-in composer`. Perhaps you can provide us some example which kind of block you using in `Easyblog build-in composer`?

Hi Arlex

And thank you for your response.

What i want to achieve is to make somekind of template containing only a "title", "Picture" and "content-text".
Nothing more.

The content-text will 9 out of 10 times be copy/pasted from a word-document, which is the reason i need to include/exclude some inline-styling from the word-document.

Let me hear from you

Hey Jesper,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

It seems like JCE editor do not have this kind of template container like Easyblog build-in composer, but i found out this `template manager` plugin from JCE editor (https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/component/zoo/item/template-manager-4) , but i do not know is it this template manger similar with the way you see on the Easyblog template container.

By the way, currently we do not have any better solution yet for this MS Word word formatting/code snippet render correct word formatting in the composer.
