SID-01232: TinyMCE on a Per-Topic/page basis

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	5.0.1	Perl version:

I would like to use TinyMCEPlugin only on one or two specific pages. I understand that TinyMCE can be disabled on a per-page basis, but I would prefer to have raw editing as the only option on all but one or two pages. Is this possible?

Discussion and Answer

I generally shut off the wysiwyg for a web by setting TINYMCEPLUGIN_DISABLE = 1 in that web's WebPreferences, and then for each topic that you want to enable the wysiwyg, you can set that variable equal to 0 either in the topic or in the topic preference settings (under More topic actions). You can shut off the wysiwyg site-wide by putting the variable in Main.TWikiPreferences (and still re-enable it on a web- or topic-level as described above).

Aaron's approach is good. Instead of setting TINYMCEPLUGIN_DISABLE = 1 you can also set EDITMETHOD = raw on web level or site level, then overload on page level with a EDITMETHOD = wysiwyg setting. Access control details at TWikiAccessControl.
