[SOLVED] Cannot add imgs in WYSIWYG Pls HELP!

Post by CapereSpiritum »

Hi, I'm running CMS Made Simple 1.10.2. I'm using PHP 5, and MySQL 5.0

Problem... I cannot add/remove images in the WYSIWYG (Content/Pages/Edit). All other functions appear fine.

This is my SECOND CMSMS install. The first is 100%.
For the 2nd, I have checked all CHMOD settings and php.ini files several times and even done a complete new upload TWICE! Fresh DB, clean folder etc...

The function to add an image using the WYSIWYG does not work in the second install but does in the first.
Please see image (bottom row is the 1st and the top row is the 2nd.
No-Image-Edit.jpg
I have tried to attach the checksum.dat file to help but not allowed.

Desperate for help. It's Driving me nuts ???

You did check this...
"Allow images:
This enables an image button on the toolbar, allowing inserting an image into the content"

I the settings tab, right?...

Hi Dr CSS, I must be blind...

I've looked thru all settings.

I'm looking under 'Site Admin/Global Settings and all five tabs here

Also under 'Content/File Manager/Settings

Treat me like a complete noob and let me know exact path please... Just Can't see it...

Many thanks.

Just a stupid remark, why is this picture button not set as a standard?

I have looked everywhere fpr that button and thanks to the forum I found it but it shouldn't have been so difficult I reckon.

but thanks for the solution tough.

No, it's not stupid.

It is my (not-so-extensive) experience that site editors rarely have to add images in the content. And when they do, they often screw something up in the process. :lol: So, this is a good dev decision, if you ask me.

In my (extensive) experience nearly all content editors have to add images and I never use the content image tag as it is important that clients are able to actually see the image. TinyMCE is much better anyhow as it has great functionality.

I use GBFilePicker in {content_module} mode in my templates and only allow users to upload a certain number of photos per page, which are automatically sized, placed, captioned, and clickable. A little more effort on my part, but saves a lot of user frustration.
