Hi,
I've installed s-8.2. Everything works fine but I can't start WYSIWYG editor. Yes, I've switched it on in configuration... but when I click on "new entries" I can enter only html code. Anyone has any idea why it doesn't work?

Hey...

What kind of browser are you using? Do you have it turned on in your personal configuration as well as the global config? Also, make sure you have javascript turned on!

I've tried it with IE5+ and also with Firefox. It seems that somethings is wrong with my installation, because in serendepity-7.1 everthing is working fine.

I have the same problem. Using 8.1. I dont have any problems with WYSIWYG, but after upgrading to 8.2. it doesnt work anymore.

Edit: And Ive tried both IE and Firefox

The WYSIWYG editor syntax hasn't changed in 0.8.2, so it shouldn't be related to that. Can you check if your htmlarea/ directory exists and has all the files in place?

Also check your javascript console output in Firefox and see if you get JS errors.

Also check your HTML sourcecode of an "edit entry" page and search for "spawn" and see if a JS function is inside there; only then your WYSIWYG option is properly turned on...

Ok Ive checked the HTML Area directory and it looks like I had wrong permissions on it. After setting to 777 it works now.
