View Full Version : Lost WYSIWYG-Editor
For some reason, my board lost all text editor functionality over the last day or so and I am unsure why. The toolbar that usually has fonts, font colors, smilies, and such while making a post has disappeared. I have tried modifying my options and such but I havent had any luck bringing the options back. Worst part is I don't know how it disappeared in the first place. Any help suggestions would be extremely helpful and appreciated!
As a test, try disabling all plugins by putting
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', 1);
in your includes/config.php file. If that doesn't fix it, also try creating a new style with no parent and see if that works.
It turns out that I had to set my mobile styles to "none" and then it appeared.

I'm still having the same issue on my site.
I turned off all plug-ins. I set mobile styles to NONE. I created a new style with no parent. I've tried logging in as Admin and a new test user.
I am not able to get a Standard or WYSIWYG editor to appear in the forum at all.

Then check AdminCP > Settings > Options > Message Posting Interface Options > Enable Clickable Message Formatting Controls

All three options are set to "Enable Standard & WYSIWYG Controls"
I'm thinking this is an error in one of my templates. I had to address many of them with the 4.1.10 upgrade, and I fear that one of them was the template for posts.

Check if u had the MOD called "Different Domain, Different Style" they can cause this issues is the configuration is not correct.

If it was an error in one of your templates, then creating a default style and viewing the site with that, and with the modifications turned off, would have shown the missing editor.

Good point.
So, I disabled all of my plug-ins individually and through Settings >> Options.
I set the Default style to the vB default style.
I cleared all caches. I purged everything in Internet Explorer (I never open the forum in that browser, so it's good for testing changes).
The forum displays in the default style, but the editors still do not appear. Very strange. Thoughts?

Check AdminCP > Settings > Options > Style & Language Options and make sure that Default Style for Modern Mobile Browsers and Default Style for Old Mobile Browsers are set to NONE, not to your default style.

That was the first thing I did, when I read several other threads about this topic. It has not worked for me.

I'm not great at tracking down stylevars and templates, so would someone be able to tell me where the files are stored for the editors, and which template actually creates the posting form, including the insertion of the editor?

To find the template to modify, do this - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around your part of the code. (Sometimes the template is the one mentioned at the very top of the page source.)
But finding the templates isn't going to help you if you have already tried this with a totally default style with absolutely no modifications. Run Maintenance > Diagnostics > Suspect File Versions. Do any DEFAULT vbulletin files show up as not containing the expected contents (I don't care about modification files, only default vbulletin files)?

The Diagnostic generated some interesting results. They don't mean a ton to me, but perhaps one will mean something to you (I appreciate your help with this):

SOLVED?
Under Settings >> Options >> Site Name / URL / Contact Details, I cleared the value in the field for "Forum Component URL". And now the editor appears.
