Hi support forum readers!
My first Drupal installation. Am happy with the look and functionality of the site but I've spent my whole Sunday trying to get the WYSIWYG editors to work so that I could have the site's users upload pictures, without success (it's a non-profit, and I'm a volunteer).
I have installed IMCE, Wysiwyg and IMCE Wysiwyg API bridge, plus Tiny MCE, and later FCKEditor when the former didn't work.
The editors show up fine on the interface, and appear to work, until the point when the content is previewed or saved, at which point I end up with only the "stripped" code (i.e. becomes [img])
At first I thought it was just a problem uploading images, so spent a lot of time learning about filters to ensure that the tag was allowed. I messed about with the various "input formats" , without success.
Then I worked out that it wasn't actually an image problem, when I managed to create an "image" content (previously I'd been trying to insert an image in a book page or blog post). Actually, TinyMCE was the problem - it wasn't only the images that wouldn't work, but any of the WYSIWYG formatting commands.
So I disabled that, and tried FCKEditor, but if I use the "disable rich text" command in FCKEditor, I can actually get and effects with the HTML, but using the editor, it just ends up looking like this: [b]test text it bold[/b].
So, same problem as with TinyMCE. The WYSIWYG interface is just not outputting into the content (that's probably the wrong way to say it, but I hope you know what I mean!)
There's clearly something very obvious I'm doing wrong, but I can't figure out what it is. I thought of disinstalling everything and starting again, but now I can't work out how to disinstall the WYSIWYG module.
Summary: the various WYSIWYG editors I've tried don't actually do anything... what could be the issue??
Hope I've provided enough information, and that someone will be kind enough to help.
Best wishes,
Daniel
