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+Applica…
. 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.
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.
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.
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.
I'm lost as to where to look next, and would welcome some guidance.
Cheers
