Hi All,
On an infrequently maintained xwiki instance (.deb on Ubuntu), which was running 8.4.1, the default editor is WYSIWYG
In Administration | Edit Mode Settings | DEFAULT EDITOR, the dropdown box contains Wysiwyg and Text, and does NOT contain CKEditor
That's normal. Below "Default Editor" you should have "Default WYSIWYG Editor" as in http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Administration+Applicat... . That is the property that should list CKEditor as a possible value. But CKEditor should be the default WYSIWYG editor in XWiki 8.4.1 even if you leave this property unset.
The edit mode looks like https://s23.postimg.org/mnapaie3f/editmode.png
If a page in the wiki is selected, the edit icon has the options in the dropdown for WYSIWYG, CKEditor, Wiki & Inline form, then below it, Objects and Class.
XWiki 8.4.1 is using CKEditor 1.9 which doesn't extend the edit menu, see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CKEDITOR-96 .
If CKEditor is selected, the edit window is not shown.
If I try to edit a (blank) page with CK editor https://s30.postimg.org/9ftdmdri9/ckeditor.png
Did you upgrade to 8.4.1 from a previous version? It may be the case that CKEditor was not upgraded properly. Or maybe you didn't clear the browser cache.
Yes it was updated, but I couldn't tell you what the previous version was, I think it started out as a 2.x.x release
I tried an update to 8.4.4, and there is no change in Administration | Edit Mode Settings | DEFAULT EDITOR, but when a page is edited, it now shows in the place where I would expect to see the edit window the below
Content #ckeditor($parameters)
It seems CKEditor was still not upgraded properly.
As ckeditor shows as "Installed as a dependency", how might I go about upgrading it properly ? https://s27.postimg.org/6k9up5i8j/dependency.png Cheers Arne
