How do I enable WYSIWYG editor?

[johnny-hunter]

Hi, the only editor i have in the admintrator page looks like that attached. I can't even find how to upload my zip file. I know there is a WYSIWYG editor, how can I enable it?

Thanks,
John

Hi!

You can enable the builtin WYSIWYG editor by going to "Personal preferences" and set "WYSIWYG editor" to "Yes".

However, that will not help you to upload zip files. You can do that already with the current mini-editor, by using the "media" button. In the WYSIWYG editor, you will also have a similar button; you can click it to upload files to your blog and then embed those uploaded files as a link in your blog entries.

Regards,
Garvin

I am having a problem with the WYSIWYG editor.

When I open it, I get a jumble of shaded images across the top and can't get to the tool bar on the top of the editor. It also messes up the post I'm working on.

As a work around, I'm using the HTML editor, but it is much more cumbersome. Do you know who to get rid of the garbage in my WYSIWYG editor?

Thanks.

I depends on your system. In most cases this is a browsers cache mismatch.
To force a re-load and a cache purge of that page, use [Ctrl]+[F5] keyboard combination.
