Question

I am having trouble getting TinyMCEPlugin to work. Specifically, I do not get Wysiwyg editing when I click the Edit button; I get normal TWiki text editing. This also occurs on the initial creation of new pages.

I have checked the configuration (attached) for obvious problems: WysiwygPlugin not installed/enabled, etc. There are no warnings or errors in the configuration, no visible Plugin Diagnostics, and no error messages in the webserver log.

I had been able to make TinyMCE work okay before. Since then, I have done two things which might be contributing: moved TWiki from one drive/directory on the server to another, and created our own custom skin, based on AmbarSkin.

Any suggestions on possible causes, fixes, or how to diagnose/debug would be appreciated.

Environment

TWiki version: TWikiRelease04x01x02

I recently found a wierd bug that might have caused this. Try re-installing WysiwygPlugin and TinyMCEPlugin and trying again.

Also make sure to check the setting of WYSIWYG_EXCLUDE in TWiki.TWikiPreferences or WebPreferenes and etc. In my case it was set to "calls" which caused 80% of the pages to be uneditable with WYSIWYG and falling back to the default textarea editor instead. You can try creating a new and empty topic, saving it, and then opening it again with WYSIWYG.
