Hi all,

does anyone have any ideas for making page blocks extra fields support the wysiwig?

it won't output, just let's me input

why?

because I have a page

it has images to the left
content to the right

I want users to put images in for each piece.

but i want it in a seperate div

I know that sounds CRAZY

but it should be easy--except page blocks doesn't let the user do it :-/ they can only enter things in the "oneline" which means no image button....

Hello,

look at the sample content or the documentation : it explains how you can have several content blocks per page :
{content}
{content block="anothercontent"}
{content block="yetanothercontent"}
And of course you can put these {content} in separate DIVs, hence multicolumn.

Hi Pierre,

I'm sorry, I meant that you can't do "upload", "rich-text editor", etc--the other options generally available.

Maybe it'll happen down the road :)?

Not if you use {content block="***" oneline="true"} this is so you can add titles and such it won't have WYSIWYG toolbar...

hey guys,

I'm sorry, I'm explaining it poorly :)

I meant, no option BUT "oneline" was working.

If I set oneline to false: instant crash & burn, field doesn't work.

That's what I'd like to change....

oneline is set to true or you don't use it, just use a regular extra content block tag... {content block="younameit"}

There is a part of the tag that says wysiwyg='true' or ='false'...

Go to extensions > tags > content...

woaaah
you are so right

that is great

I'm sorry, I was misunderstanding you. I had wanted to use pageblocks to do it, but this actually could work better for me.
