I didn't see this anywhere else, and I'm having troubles with it, so I posted this here.
I'm using cmsms version 1.3.1 but I had version 1.(?) before that. The Tiny MCE quit working in my older version so I upgraded it in hopes that it would fix the tiny mce but it didn't. I'm not sure if there is just some setting that I can turn back on. I already checked a few things and selected tiny mce as the editor, but it didn't work. (This is for building/editing pages etc.)
What could have gone wrong? Any suggestions to get it working again? I do know html, but its just a lot easier using the tiny mce, than having to try to code everything into the page.

The current version uses TinyMCE 3.x, the older TinyMCE 2.x - many things are changed.theguy wrote: I'm using cmsms version 1.3.1 but I had version 1.(?) before that.
Try to deinstall TinyMCE module and install it then once again ...
Re: Tiny MCE quit working
This post here was what helped me, hope it helps you too.

Basically this is what I did exactly if it helps anyone:
Using CMSMS 1.3.1, uninstall TinyMCE, then delete the entire TinyMCE folder from /modules.
Clear your site and browser caches so you are starting from scratch.
Download the latest TinyMCE from this site as XML.
Upload the XML file and install it (or does this happen automatically, I don't recall)
Clear your site and browser caches again (why not eh?)
Change the /modules directory permissions to 755.
Check in User Preferences and set TinyMCE to be your wysiwyg of choice
Clear your site and browser caches again (paranoid aren't I?)
Check now by editing a page
If still nothing, try a completely separate browser, even a different machine - this is how I realised it was fixed, even though it appeared not to be...

Re: Tiny MCE quit working
designhut, your instructions are awesome!
This problem has been present since CMSMS 1.3 and it seems to be related to the "CSS styles" preferences for TinyMCE. Your procedure fixes it, but while it's broken, what I noticed is that the editor works when there are no custom CSS styles defined, it's broken (does not appear at all) when there are.
The bit about the cache is very important—I've found that TinyMCE stubbornly uses cached code.
TinyMCE is working better than ever now...thanks!!
