Sourcerer

Introduction

Sourcerer - place any code anywhere.

Sourcerer enables you to place PHP and any kind of HTML style code (including CSS and JavaScript) right in to your content! Not only in your articles, but also in sections, categories, modules, components, META tags, etc.

You can now just place your original codes right into your WYSIWYG editor. The only thing you have to do is surround the code with the Sourcerer tags. Easy peasy!

So now you can also use PHP scripts in your content. That opens up a great deal of possibilities.

Most Joomla! Text Editors will strip parts of your HTML code, like JavaScripts (think of statistics scripts) and movie embed tags. With Sourcerer you won't have these limitations.

Easy to use editor button
Sourcerer comes with a very easy to use editor button. This will help you paste your code in a clean format that will not cause any problems. Also it comes with syntax coloring (php, js, css, html).

Looks like it does what it says!

Really nice! Jumi is good, but I wish it allowed you to enter the code into your article as well, instead of calling a separate file for every small thing. This allows you to do just that! Just one thing. Do you have to use the [[ and ]] tags? If so, can you please code in the functionality (to the best of your ability) a way to be able to use full regular tags (e.g. not [[b]])

you are my GURU!

Hi there!

Your extensions are the best out there.

I struggled with the embedding of iframes into JCE and at last your solutions did it!

Thank you so much!

Markus

Did what it said it would do!

It isn't often I am so VERY pleased with a simple plugin, but this one made my life ever so much easier in the Joomla universe when I found it. I have pulled my hair out trying to overcome the problems with code being stripped out, and rendered useless. But I finally decided to see if there was an easier way to add some scripting code. Heck, it even added a Source button at the bottom of my JCE editor screens! I'm VERY happy!! Highly recommended. In fact, I am adding this plugin to my list of "must installs" for every Joomla project I work on.

Fantastic!!!

Just fantastic! I was having some trouble with an iframe that shows a map from GoogleMaps anda used to desapear every single time I opened the article for edition. This solved the problem... And opened a wide range of possibilities I didn't think were possible before!

Thanks a lot!

at last I did it!

thanks for the plugin!

I had tried some plugin for embed html and you give me real result :)

Now I can put my docs viewer with html code in my articles, even I must try to fit it with my css templates >.

Right on the point!

I still love my HTML & PHP, even after making the switch to Joomla. But I could barely use either, until I landed on Sourcerer. It's brilliant. Everyone working with Joomla should have it on their server.

Wow
