Tiny MCE appears. Body disappears
Development and Programming
I just installed and enabled Tiny MCE. (This is the first time I’ve tried using it.)
The editing tools appear below the body field, but all content in existing entries disappears in the Edit panel. You can’t enter content in the Publish panel.
What have I done wrong?
Which extension are you using and which version of EE? Any other extensions installed?
I just updated to EE 1.6.4. I downloaded the latest Tiny MCE, 3.1.1. The only other extension I’m using is multi-relationship.
Are you using LG tinyMCE or EE’s tinymce extension?
You will need one of those to link tinymce to textareas in the backend
I’m using this one: http://expressionengine.com/downloads/details/tinymce/
The instructions say “put it at the root of your EE site” although it’s not obvious what “it” is, since the download consists of a zip file with many nested folders inside. I must have done that part right though, or close anyway, since the edit tools appear.
I don’t mean to discredit EE’s official extension but I suggest you check out my version with its documentation. It will put you on the right path.
LG– I downloaded your extension, which appears to be two files. I posted the lang file in language/english. I posted the ext file in extensions. I enabled the plugin. Now I have no editor AND empty text boxes.
What documentation?
I still don’t know if I properly installed TinyMCE. The folders I extracted do not match the documentation on the tinyMCE web site. I now have
root/tinymce/examples root/tinymce/jscripts root/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce
etc.
Hey Haycock,
Ah I’m guessing you grabbed the extension from the EE site. Try http://leevigraham.com/cms-customisation/expressionengine/lg-tinymce/
