#2911 closed New Feature (wontfix)

Make it possible for CKEDITOR.plugins.addExternal() to load plugins not named "plugin.js"

Description

This feature request came from Senthil Kumaran of Oracle.

At the moment CKEDITOR.plugins.addExternal() is only able to load plugins whose filename is plugin.js, because the plugin.js filename is hardcoded into the plugin system.

It is requested that the addExternal() should be able to load arbitrary .js filenames as plugins, e.g. "/my_plugins/abcde.js".

The problem with this approach is that, opening it in this way, will inspire people to point the editor to load server side scripts, like plugin.php, or even URLs with querystring parameters. It would just make the system more complex than it needs to be.

I opt for leaving the plugin.js file a requirement. If implementors have specific needs, there may be other ways to satisfy them, like customizing the getUrl function, for example.
