Issue
- I added buttons such as strike-through, superscript, and subscript to the AlloyEditor toolbar, but these buttons don't work when attempting to edit content in the Blogs module.
Resolution
- The strike-through, superscript, subscript, and page break buttons do not work for the Blogs portlet as the Blogs portlet itself specifies a whitelist of allowed tags as part of the AlloyEditor configuration. However, the tags utilized by these buttons are not whitelisted. This cannot be configurable, and Liferay will need to be customized to allow these buttons.
The following information is regarding customization and should be implemented at your team's discretion. Liferay Support is limited in assisting customization.
As a starting point, you can blacklist the com.liferay.blogs.editor.configuration.internal.BlogsContentEditorConfigContributor component. With just this change, the strike-through, superscript, and subscript buttons work again, but since this component is also responsible for generating a file browser URL for uploading files, you will need to add your own custom contributor for blogs to re-add the appropriate URL.
The blockquote tag is also not whitelisted, but it will appear not to work even after the component is blacklisted due to styling (the margin-left is set to 0 in clay).
