Register a new preset for ck_editor in TYPO3 8

Question

i want to use more than one rte configurations in my installation. I configured the default preset with a yaml file which works as expected. But now i want to use an other configuration in a bodytext field of an own content element.

What i did: Register the new preset in ext_localconf.php:

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['RTE']['Presets']['myset1'] = 'EXT:..../myset1.yaml';
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['RTE']['Presets']['myset2'] = 'EXT:..../myset2.yaml';

in columnsOverrides of my TCA i defined:

'bodytext' => [
    'label' => '...',
    'config' => [
        'enableRichtext' => true,
        'richtextConfiguration' => 'myset2'
    ]
]

But this does not work.

Any ideas? Thanks!

You can use Page TSconfig to assign presets to different content elements.

The following example will set myset2 only to the content element of CType text:

RTE.config.tt_content.bodytext.types.text.preset = myset2
