aceEditor not working, any ideas?
aceEditor not working, any ideas?
I have been using aceEditor, but now I started working on a site where I can't get Ace to work. It installs nicely, but under "My Preferences" The "AceEditor" part is a bit greyed out. When I click it, I can see a nice AceEditor logo, the tabs "Preferences" and "Frontend Preferences", but the pages are empty, nothing in them!
Also, if I select Ace to be used in editing, for example css, the page looks like the editor is just stripped out ot there.
Anyone else ever run into this problem? Any ideas what settings I can check? AceEditor has worked nicely right "out of the box" before this. At the moment, only access I have to the site is through CMSMS. I have admin rights. CMSMS is version 1.9.4.3. I tried AceEditor versions 0.2.4 and the older 0.2.3.2 through installing via XML file.

In Global Settings AceEditor is enabled as Syntaxhighlighter?
You do have he permissions to use it?

Re: aceEditor not working, any ideas?
Hmm, I can't find anything related to AceEditor under Global settings... I checked another site where AE is working, and the same thing, no AE under Global settings. In User preferences though, in the part "Select syntax highlighter to use" AE is selected.uniqu3 wrote:In Global Settings AceEditor is enabled as Syntaxhighlighter?

Where can I check the permissions?
Re: aceEditor not working, any ideas?
Oh ok yes i was actually aiming at user preferences, my bad
If you are Admin of the site you should actually see it then, be able to change Ace Preferences....
Else look in "Users & Groups -> Group Permissions" and enable "AceEditor User Preference" for your User group.

Re: aceEditor not working, any ideas?
I'm in the "Admin" group, and in "Users & Groups -> Group Permissions" the "AceEditor User Preference" is enabled for Admin group. I selected all of the groups just to be sure, but no change.
Now, when I select AceEditor from "My Preferences", all I see is this:

Javascript is turned on in my browser. AE is working on another tab, viewing another site.

Is there any error in the sourcecode of that page?
Maybe something got messed up while installing with ModuleManager, did you try uploading Module directly to modules folder after unpacking .tar.gz package?

Re: aceEditor not working, any ideas?
I see no error messages at all. The page source just ends all of a sudden, when I assume the AE code should start. The last few markings are:
As for the uploading part, I thought I only have access to the "uploads" directory, but now I see I can see the whole system, nice 
I see a warning in the "File Manager" urging me to delete modules/FileManager/postlet directory, so that might be related. I'll try to delete that first and see what happens.
Code: Select all
<!-- EndTabHeaders --><div class="clearb"></div><div id="page_content"><div id="settings_c">

If it stops then it is definately some error, check for php error logs on your server.

)

Re: aceEditor not working, any ideas?
Manuel are you using latest version?
Just checked Textmate and editing Stylesheet in Chrome worked for me, maybe a browser issue?

Hi Goran,
I don't remember on what website i encoutered it so i just set up a fresh 1.11-beta2 and installed AceEditor.
Everything is working perfectly with the default settings so as far as i'm concerned, the issue seems inreproducable!
Great job on the theme b.t.w.!
I'm also happily surprised about the possibility to just rename the admin directory, clear the cache and voila, done! No more need to change any parameter in the config! Makes everything feel even smoother!
I'll spend some extra time later testing the beta but it sure looks promising!!
@luppa did you try this?

I'll try recreating the issue (tomorrow afternoon) by setting up "cmsms 1.9.4.3. + AceEditor 0.2.4"- Try clearing your cache (i mean cmsms cache, not browser cache)
