TinyMCE installed but not showing

Post by steve »

Hi all,

I'm running the latest cmsms and have installed tinyMCE but when I go to edit a page tinyMCE doesn't show. I have it selected in my user prefs and permissions.

I have fond this problem in the forums a few times but only one with a solution:
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 258.0.html

Some code was inserted by the sever in to the header.  Here is my code but i don't really know what I'm looking for.

Code: Select all

When I had this problem I found an easier solution: Extensions > TinyMCE and uncheck 'Use TinyMCE compression module'.

This solved the problem some of my clients had when they were using IE.

Hi,

maybe kind of browser problem? Sometimes Opera rejects working with wysiwyg editors...

Did it work before anyway? Gave FF/IE a try?

I have the same issue with IE (havent tried other browsers yet) ... if I disable the tinymce compression (using tinymce 2.0.5) then all is fine, as soon as I turn it on ... tinymce dissappears ... it was working fine until I updated to 2.0.5 ...

I'm using IE7 and installed CMSMS 1.1, having the same issue of TinyMCE not being activated (visable) when editing a page. I found that I had to go to Extensions --> TinyMCE and then check the box: "Show checkbox to turn wysiwyg on/off." Now, whenever I edit a page, I first see the source code, until I check the box at the bottom that says: "Turn WYSIWYG on/off."

I didn't expect to have to do this, for I installed an earlier version of CMSMS (perhaps 1.06) and don't have to go through this to view the TinyMCE editor, even after I've upgraded that site to 1.1. Also, in trying to get the TinyMCE to work, I installed FCKeditor, and it worked right away without difficulty.

I have had some weird behavior related to TinyMCE as well. Three times in different versions of CMSMS. All the icons in the editor interface dissapeared.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. no love.. That's when I started looking at the files and found the file permissions changed for all the files in the TinyMCE directory + sub dirs.  I think they were all set to 600 I don't recall for sure. It was on three different occasions with different versions of CMSMS each time. I don't recall anything that links the three occurances, but what solved the problem was chmod -R 755 TinyMCE from the modules directory, and it all started working again.

hope that helps
