Insert reference component in a table cell

Is it possible to insert a reference component in a table cell using the Rich Text editor in 6.1 (or 6.2)?  This of course brings out the question of being able to insert any component using the RTE.

Thanks!

Hi 

Did you check the Content fragment ?

In AEM 6.2, you can use content fragments that let you create original content in AEM, enabling copy writers to create editorial content before it is being authored in a page and to further allow curating such content by creating channel specific variations and by associating collections with relevant media content. As a result, web producers receive content that is prepared and "ready to go”, enabling them to focus on assembling content across channels, globally and on a local level.

We have Helpx article created to tell how to use it :- https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/content-fragments.html

Documentation :- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/author/page-authoring/content-fragments.html

I hope this will be something that is closest available option as of now.

 

Thanks and Regards

No - the RTE is only meant to edit text - not a holder for components.

Yes, I agree with Scott..Rich text editor(RTE) is only meant for editing text and styles not to include the component.

THanks,

Thanks, I suspected as much, but was hoping that someone might have a solution in place that would support embedding content / components in the editor.
