What is the best approach of adding tinymce plugin to EPi Server 8
Hi,
I think that "_protected" folder should not be touched as well as zip file inside. It could be overriden after you upgrade EPiServer to newer version.
Did you tried to create a directory structure in your solution:
/util/Editor/tinymce/plugins/[your plugin name]/
inside this directory there should be two main files editor_plugin.js and editor_plugin_src.js (the ...._src is use as a debug version, but I'm not sure).
And then you create and editor class with attribute that describes your new plugin:
[TinyMCEPluginNonVisual(PlugInName = "[your plugin name]")]
public class MyCustomPlugin
{
}
The "[your plugin name]" should be the same in directory structure and in the attribute.
Maybe try with some very simple plugin and check if it's added to your Tinymce editor.

I have implemented a custom tinymce plugin and before epi server upgradation and it work fine. (In episever 7.5)
After the upgrade in edit mood when i load the editor it says
"Failed to load: /util/Editor/tinymce/plugins/accordion/editor_plugin.js?moduleArea=Util".
In other inbuilt plugins are working fine.Only manual implemented plugin arise this 404 error.
Then i found that in EPi Server 8 there is a zip file which include the tinymce resources.
So i tried to add my newly created plugin to the "EPiServer.Cms.Shell.UI.zip" file in Modules->_protected->CMS (Unziped and add the plugin folder and zip again and replace)
After adding to that zip file it works fine.
So i need to know the best apprach to add a tinymce plugin to the epi server.
Is the best solution , updating the "EPiServer.Cms.Shell.UI.zip" file ?
