Paste image into ckeditor

I am trying to get the abiltiy to paste an image from the clipboard into ckeditor.

It is unclear if I can do this with the standard download or if I have to download additional plugin(s).

I tried to follow the various plugins but it seems quite complicated as some of the plugins have dependencies and some of those dependencies have their own dependencies!

I then tried the ckbuilder route but after I highlighted the plugin that said it lets you paste in images from the clipboard I could not see the plugin in the resulting download.

Lastly I could not find any info on how you enable plugins - am I right in thinking you have to edit the config.js file or is it something else?

Thanks!

Ed

To support uploading image you need to add upload image plugin with all its dependencies, which is not included in any standard package. To include all dependencies automatically use the builder. Plugins included into your custom package created with builder are included into the ckeditor.js file and load automatically. To make image upload works you need to define the uploadUrl configuration option additionally.

Also note that only Firefox support pasting files. On other brosers you can drag and drop file or an image from the image processor (Paint, Gimp, Photoshop, etc.).
