The thing is, when creating a new document I can select TinyMCE from the dropdown box. The page refreshes and I still get no editor.
Surely this is a major bug.
Yes, it is.
Ok I can put in all the html tags myself (in some ways this is easier for me), but this is meant to be one of the final beta versions so i’d expect it to be near ready. Afterall the scheduled release is fast upon us.
Well, you have a couple of incorrect assumptions there:
1.
That TinyMCE is part of MODx Revolution - it’s not. It’s a 3rd-Party Component, or Extra, so it’s not directly managed by the core dev team. It’s completely separate. We provided a JIRA project for it since so many people use it - but the brunt of development effort for the TinyMCE extra lies on the MODx community - as it always has been.
2.
That MODx Revolution in RC1 will have a bunch of perfectly working Extras - It may, it may not. This completely depends on how much the MODx developer community jumps in and develops those extras.
And the "scheduled release" is not really definite - it depends on many factors, such as community involvement, financial investment, developer adoption, bug fixing, and more. So far the Collabpad group is pretty heavily dependent on client work to pay bills atm, and since Jason and I are really the only ones so far actively making commits on Revolution, well, you get the idea.
