[solved] Wysiwyg editors not showing formatted text while

Hi all,

Im having an issue with tinymce which i cant seem to solve.

When i click into a blog post or a page or anywhere tinymce editor shows up the text area doesnt show the text formatted at all. It just shows it as plain text.

If you check out the actually source code through the editor the html tags are applied but it just doesnt seem to be rendering the formatting in the text area.

I have tried going back versions of the module and uninstalling/reinstalling it. The permissions for the module folder and modules are set to 775.

Any help would be awesome!
Cheers
Sean

I thought i would post an update to this:

I have just upgraded to the newest version of CMSMS 1.10.3 and TinyMCE still doesnt work. Also MicroTiny WYSIWYG seems to have the same problem.

See screenshot below of the issue im having top image is how the text is rendered (the last line is a h1) and just to prove its actually a h1 the bottom image shows the html.

Anyone got any ideas?

Hi all,

Im not 100% sure where i should go from here. Im at a point where the client is unhappy with the wysiwyg not working. Im thinking ill need to do a full reinstall of everything but i dont want to loose the 4 weeks of blog posts.

Does anyone have a suggestion for me before i go down this path??

Cheers
Sean

I get the idea that the problem is that the editor isn't showing the formatting you have in the style sheet, did you check to make sure the style sheet is pulled in, look under the styles drop down to see if any classes are in it, make sure your style sheets are marked as screen...

You also have to be using the built in style sheets function to get this to work, if you have external style sheets, flat files called in the <head> you won't see any formatting in tiny...

I have no idea if Microtiny uses any styles when editing, never used it...

The testing area is not a good way to see if styles work...

Thanks for the reply.
Im not sure if im explaining my problem correctly.
screenshot2.gif
The screenshot shows on the left my current install of tinymce on the problem website with the default text and the default settings and how it looks when viewing.

The right side shows a fresh install of tinymce with default settings and the exact same default text on a new website im doing for my work.

As you can see the left one doesnt seem to render anything correctly but the right does.

The problem website was displaying it correctly but it has stopped working. I hope im making sense and im not annoying anyone.

This has been solved. Not sure what the issue was but doing a complete reinstall over everything has fixed the problem.
