WYSIWYG Writing page.

    Hi
    For some reason, I can’t get the WYSIWYG interface to show up for post writing. It *was* working. Not sure what I’ve managed to do to get it to go.

    I’ve checked under “Options | Writing” and visual rich editor is still ticked. I’ve tried un-ticking & re-ticking it.

    I think (hope!) that I’m right in thinking that tinyMCE is what’s driving the rich text editor? I’ve tried replacing the files in there with the originals that I extracted from the .zip file. It’s 2.0.2 that I@m running. As far as I know it *was* working in 2.0.2, but, as I’ve not had it for that long, I guess it’s possible that it was the upgrade to 2.0.2. that caused it, but I couldn’t seem to find anyone moaning about that specifically!

    Thanks in advance.

    Hmm… I’ve just tried with a Virgin WordPress 2.0.2. install & it’s working fine.

    I’ve then tried accessing the one that was playing up at home – rather than at work. And it’s fine now!

    At both home & work I’m using Firefox 1.5.0.1. As far as I know, both set up the same way. Any suggestions??

    Are you logged on as the same user for both? There are two places to turn off WYSIWYG. One under “Users” (scroll down) and the other under Options -> Writing (towards the top).

    I’m logged in to the Work one with the same ID at both home & work. I’m at home now & have only just set up the alternative, so can’t test that at work till tomorrow.

    OK. Back at work now and I’ve had a look at it here. I do get to see the full WYSIWYG interface on IE – and on Firefox – as long as I use “safe mode”, so, it must be one of the extensions that I’ve installed that’s messing up!

    I suspect the most likely culprit is Accessibar, as I think that starts to control the JS a bit. Will try removing that one (especially as it wasn’t that good anyway!)

    OK … well, as with all these things, I removed several extensions – and finally decided that it was *probably* JSView that was affecting it. I put the rest back, and finally the JS one. Now, either it’s been updated (and not told me – however, given that it’s dated March 3rd & I only installed the one I found last week), I’ve either found a more upto date version of the same, or something with the same name that looks a bit different.

    Whatever, it *looks* different – and it’s letting the WYSIWIG editor work. No idea why!

    (And, still can’t get the structured blogging one to work – that just seems most odd!)

    Anyhow – the Rich Text editor works fine (not sure that I *like* it, but that’s a different matter.
