CKEditor.allowedContent not parsed correctly

[Propaganistas]

Hi

Here's another one:
I've forked my own version of startup.js so I can fine-tune Editable's CKEditor (by adding extra parameters in the CKEDITOR.config object).

However, for some reason or the other allowedContent = true is working properly, but inserting any self-defined tag string won't.
I discovered this when I plugged in Bolt's default wysiwyg allowedContent string (in config.yml) and my FontAwesome icons (<i> tag) were being filtered whenparsed by Editable (despite correct allowance of the tag).

Here's the stuff I'm talking about:

CKEDITOR.config.extraPlugins = 'editable';
// Extra parameters
CKEDITOR.config.autoParagraph = false;
CKEDITOR.config.allowedContent = true;

vs

CKEDITOR.config.extraPlugins = 'editable';
// Extra parameters
CKEDITOR.config.autoParagraph = false;
CKEDITOR.config.allowedContent = 'p i(*); strong em strike cite blockquote code ul ol li dl dt dd br h2 h3 h4 h5 h6;a[!href,title];img[!src,width,height,alt,title]{width,height,text-align,float};table thead tbody tr th td[*]{*}(*)';

Thanks for the great support!

Is it means would your snippet improve the extension? If so would you like to make a pull request to be included? :-)

No, I'm reporting that CKEditor's allowedContent option parameter isn't working properly in Editable.

Thank you. Then updated now.

I think you misunderstood me. I'm reporting that the allowedContent parameter is not working as expected for <i> tags in Editable.
However, as a workaround I managed to use <span> tags instead of <i>.

As I remember in CKEditor you can just enter tags which are enabled by corresponding toolbar or plugin, additional that are in allowedContent option. Although I thought that your snippet is a workaround for this, but I think if <i> tags can't be managed in Editable then it isn't an extension related issue but a problem in CKEditor. I would be curious how it is managed in Bolt backend's content editing. Do you agree with? Or what option do you suggest we better to use in Editable?
I must confess I'm not a great fan of CKEditor so I didn't dig in details of its configuration...
