CMS Made Simple Forums

I just updated a site the other day and it showed a new "TinyMCE Basic" menu option under "Extensions".

I updated another site and it won't show up.

Ideas?  Why would it be different?

Did you have tiny installed on the other site?...

Try uninstalling original tiny then reupload tiny basic from the folder of CMSMS 1.1...

Also you can FTP to site and go to modules/tinymce and look at tinymcemodule.php to see which ver. it is...

I reinstalled version 2.2.1 (again) from the latest version in the forge and still nothing.

Where does CMSMS determine what to show in its dropdown menus - maybe that could shed some light?

On Site A, I go to /admin/moduleinterface.php?module=TinyMCE and it works fine.

On Site B, it goes to a page that just says "TinyMCE WYSIWYG Basic module" and then nothing.

Did you set your permissions to use/change it or check to be default...

I wouldn't use the one from the forge, you have it in the CMSMS 1.1 folder, in cmsmadesimple-1.1\cmsmadesimple\modules\TinyMCE, from my folder after unzipping...

Try uninstalling whatever tiny you have installed now then FTP to site and delete it then upload tiny from your CMSMS 1.1 folder then reinstall in in your site admin... other than that

I had the exact same problem with one of my sites. I unistalled TinyMCE, and re-installed and the same. Then I downgraded and it still didn't show up, I unistalled that version and went back to the latest one (I know it sounds confusing) and then, and only then, it worked.

I don't have an explanation as to why it worked but it did, at least for me.

Hahaha, I'm a moron.

It was permissions.  Make sure you've got the box checked.  Usually there's a warning when you install a module that tells you to add that permission, but there must not be one.

C'est la vie.

Thanks for your help, Mark.  I wish I had thought of that so I didn't look like an utter tool.

Sorry, which permissions do you mean?

Permissions for users of CMSMS anyway (admin is set to any rights by me).

I still have problems with TinyMCE (basic, v. 2.2), when I  click Extensions, Modules and behind TinyMCE 'change permissions', it then says:
cannot change permissions of some of the files...

Should I change that with FTP/CMOD on the subdir of TinyMCE?
if so, to 777, or can it be lower value?


Thanks much

They were talking about permissions in Users & Groups > Group Permissions, if you install, as in uninstall then reinstall, something that comes with the core CMSMS, such as tiny basic, you may not get prompted to make sure permissions are set...

The permissions you are referring to have to do with the server set up, i've seen this on sites before and it was not a problem, never could get it to go away no matter how we messed with folder/file permissions with FTP but it didn't stop us from doing what we need to do to the site or any modules...

What kind of problems are you having with tiny?...

Hi Mark, thanks !
The permissions in this site are set rigth (and in my case I didn't perform an uninstalle and reinstall).

The problems I have with Tiny MCE for this site are as follows:

I installed CMS version 1.1 and TinyMCE 2.2. that came with it (basic module).
However, the button of TinyMCE to browse for a file or picture, does not work at all, nothing whatsoever happens !! No error signal neither
The same with the HTML-button in TinyMCE: it does not open any window, or does anything at all.

This way it happens in IE 7.
With Firefox 2.0.0.6 not any popup window will open in Tiny..

With IE6, at least an error appears, saying "Callback function "TinyMCE_SimpleBrowserPlugin_Browse could not be found".

Two weeks before I installed exactly the same versions of CMS-Made Simple and TinyMCE 2.2. for another site at another server, but that one works well, Tiny does browse to pics of fils and opens the html-button!
I Cann't find any other difference !

Would you have any clue what could be the reason for this?

Thanks again very much!

Different server? could be a folder/file permission problem if you FTP to the one that works and starting with modules folder work your way to the tinymce/js folder and note the permissions for them as you drill down to it, then FTP to the site where it's not working and do the same to see if the permissions are any diff...

I use Filezilla and it has a column to the right that shows the permission settings w/o having to right click the file to check...

Hello Mark,
I just found out how to see the permissions (in WS_FTP lE), and for both servers they are excactly the same...
except for the config.php in the root:
working site: r--r--r
not working: rw-r--r

Does this mean something?

The servers are both Unix type L8 by the way

Now, if I try uninstall and re-install TinyMCE 2.2 basic (upload from the CMSMS-folder), I suppose nothing of the content that's already put in it will be ruined?
