    Well, I successfully upgraded this site from 1.0.4 to the new 1.0.5 and the TinyMCE plugin will STILL not show when editing/creating pages???

    CKEditor works but I hate what it does to the code...

    Could it be that the TinyMCE folder was named somthing differently in the .9.06 version of the site and the path is now broken to the plugin?

      That is really odd! I’ll PM you to see if I can’t help get to the bottom of this.

        Max, the plugin folder is definitely named differently between versions.
        I suspect that you have a mismatch somewhere with the paths.

          How do I find the path to TinyMCE?

          Everything else on this site seems to work. The site is old but it has made its way to Evo 1.0.5 just fine otherwise?

          I checked the main Configuration path and all looks fine. All my images are showing for example...

            In the plugin code, at the top :
            <?php
// Set the name of the plugin folder
$plugin_dir = "tinymce";

// Set path and base setting variables
if(!isset($mce_path))
{ 
    $mce_path = MODX_BASE_PATH . 'assets/plugins/'.$plugin_dir . '/'; 
    $mce_url  = MODX_BASE_URL  . 'assets/plugins/'.$plugin_dir . '/'; 
}

                Just to confirm your settings:
                File system => assets/plugins/tinymce/
                Manager settings => Configuration => Interface & Features =>Enable editor => Yes
                Manager settings => Configuration => Interface & Features =>Editor to use=> TinyMCE
                Manager settings => Security => Manager Users => * your username* => User => Editor to use=> TinyMCE

                  In another thread, a user suggested uninstalling and removing (force removal) TinyMCE, then downloading and reinstalling it. Several people are reporting this problem. The System Settings and plugin events have not changed, but Tiny is acting as you report.

                    Thanks Bob, but I tried that already.

                    I am really hoping that this is not some silly thing I have done or am obviously missing... Why do I mention this? Because I am guilty of this before...

                    But I can’t think of anything?

                      I discovered that there were a couple of single quote marks in the custom CSS selectors.
                      e.g. http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/321/4832324775.png

                      Removing these fixed the problem.
