Copy and Paste Strips Styles...running 1.4

Post by skim1114 »

I am running the most recent version of CMSMS, I even upgraded to 1.4.1 and it's still not resolved.

I am a designer/programming and I'm about to turn a site over to the client, but when I edit a page in the TinyMCE editor, if I paste something (from anything...event plain text) it strips all the styles that I have in place already.

Can someone help me out with this issue. It seems like a bug.

Thanks

Actually if you are adding formatting/html in the editor it will strip it out, only way to really get it not to is to turn of wysiwyg in user preferences add the code/whatever, then submit, then change preferences back, and don't edit it again w/o turning it off in preferences...

Using the toggle below edit box will not work even if it's off when you submit, sorry...

In the TinyMCE Admin pages, in the Advanced tab, there is a check field called "Force clean on paste:". Try unchecking this field.

Don't work, tried every combo there is, this is only thing I found that works, I was trying to add a table with bunch of images etc. from another source, just to show client there site, some stuff in page they had, in my template even if it looked like doo doo ;) and it stripped all the table info out of top and threw errors on page etc. then I turned tiny off in pref. and pasted and it worked...

simplepast is a new "paste" plugin in Tiny module 2.4.X  (from CMSMS 1.3.X)
paste is old "paste" plugin until Tiny module 2.2.X  (CMSMS 1.2.X)
