RTE custom links in custom content type

Question

Hi 
 
 I have created custom application with custom content type. 
 My custom application contains RTE for text body. 
 We have some customizations for RTE in "Insert" tab, but I don't see them in my custom RTE. 
 
 On left my content's RTE, on right - RTE from blogpost.

Do someone have any suggestions?

I still don't see Filters tab, but already have all "inserts" in RTE class RoadTestReviewContentType : IContentEmbeddableContentType {

....

private IContentEmbeddableContentTypeController _contentEmbeddableContentTypeController;

 public void SetController(IContentEmbeddableContentTypeController controller)
 {
 _contentEmbeddableContentTypeController = controller;
 }

 void EmbeddedEvents_AfterCreate(RoadTestReviewEventArgs e)
 {
 if (_contentEmbeddableContentTypeController != null)
 {
 RoadTestReview item = _roadTestReviewService.Get(e.ContentId);
 if (item != null)
 {
 _contentEmbeddableContentTypeController.AddUpdateEmbeddableContent(item.ContentId, item.ContentTypeId, item.Description);
 }
 }
 }
 
 void EmbeddedEvents_AfterUpdate(RoadTestReviewEventArgs e)
 {
 if (_contentEmbeddableContentTypeController != null)
 {
 RoadTestReview item = _roadTestReviewService.Get(e.ContentId);
 if (item != null)
 {
 _contentEmbeddableContentTypeController.AddUpdateEmbeddableContent(item.ContentId, item.ContentTypeId, item.Description);
 }
 }
 } 
 
 Don't see any usage of_contentEmbeddableContentTypeController.AddUpdateEmbeddableContent(..) only for Polls but that may be in future embeddeds

When defining the Rich Text Editor include the ContentTypeId in the options. This tells the system what content is being edited and what should be displayed in the editor. 
 In Administration > Applications > Content > {your custom content type } > Filtering there should be a section for embeddables where you can enable which embeddables should be available for that particular content type.

You will need to implement IContentEmbeddableContentType Plugin Type in your custom content type. That gives you a reference to the IContentEmbeddableContentTypeController, that is used to tell the controller when the content is created/updated so its embeddables can be parsed and stored. That should also enable embeddables and the Filtering section in the content type. Here is what that looks like for Blogs: public void Initialize() { Apis.Get().Events.AfterCreate += Events_AfterCreate; Apis.Get().Events.BeforeUpdate += Events_BeforeUpdate; } private IContentEmbeddableContentTypeController ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController; public void SetController(IContentEmbeddableContentTypeController controller) { ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController = controller; } void Events_BeforeUpdate(Extensibility.Api.Version1.BlogPostBeforeUpdateEventArgs e) { if (ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController != null) ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController.Updated(e.ContentId, null, (updater) => { e.InternalEntity.FormattedBody = updater.Update(e.InternalEntity.FormattedBody); }); } void Events_AfterCreate(Extensibility.Api.Version1.BlogPostAfterCreateEventArgs e) { if (ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController != null) { var body = e.Body("Raw"); if (ContentEmbeddableContentTypeController.Updated(e.ContentId, null, (updater) => { body = updater.Update(body); })) Apis.Get().Update(e.Id.Value, new BlogPostsUpdateOptions { Body = body }); } }
