TinyMCE does not appear in Revo

Quote from: mahnuh at Jan 31, 2011, 01:59 AM

is it possible to install TinyMCE another way than via package manager?

Sort of. There are several methods.

First, uninstall and remove (force removal) and existing TinyMCE versions.

Then get the TinyMCE transport package zip file via FTP or some other method.

Put the TinyMCE transport package zip file in the core/packages directory.

Then, go to Package Manager and click on "Add Package" and "Search Locally for Packages."

Install it normally from the grid. You’re using PM, but you’re not *downloading* with PM.

The other methods are pretty ugly.

1. You could go to GitHub and download the entire TinyMCE package with all the build scripts and build utilites. Then configure and run build.transport.php, which should create the transport package file in core/packages.

2. (Even uglier), you could cut and paste the code from GitHub into files and plugins and the site, create youre own system settings, etc. to build it all from scratch. The odds of getting it all right are slim.

I’m too scared to manually delete all my files in core/cache -- is that really ok?!?

Oh it’s you Bob! I used your guide today to understand User Permissions - thank you SO MUCH for writing that.

Yes, I do it all the time. Just be sure not to delete the cache directory itself and be especially careful not to delete the /core directory.

Are there any errors in the MODx error log (under Reports in the Top Menu)?

Yes, I have this errors in the logger:

any help?

I’m considering back to evolution because of better performance and no errors

Those errors just mean that you didn’t fully remove TinyMCE before installing the new version.

I did a fresh install of revo and downloaded tiny package and uploaded into core/packages, I installed tiny but it still doesn’t appear, just "Toggle Editor" checkbox is visible during document editing

I also tried to clear the cache but this didn’t help

I tried to install revo on another hosting - same problem.
I used newest revolution (traditional) and tinyMCE pugin.

Maybe there is something I made wrong?

Thanks Bob for getting back to me, I manually cleared my cache directory, reinstalled tinyMCE -- no luck. I found an older thread about this same problem of tinyMCE not showing up and the solution was to switch "archive_with" in system settings to 1
http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,53651.0.html
I tried that too, but that didn’t work either. I also switched it back to "No" and tried reinstalling, clearing, etc.
I have been spending many, many hours on this problem, I hope someone will take mercy on us and help! Please, please please, pretty please!

Finally I found out why TinyMce was not appearing in my revo pages - this was caused by Firefox and its addon named Adblock Plus.

It was blocking Tiny js somehow but after I disabled it, everything is working well...
