WYSIWYG Editor Disapeared
 

Hello,

I have just upgraded from 4.1.5 to 4.1.6 and now my WYSIWYG editor is not displaying....

Any ideas on what may cause this, my members are already moaning :-(

Thanks for your help

Danny

Try disabling your modifications/plugins and see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit includes/config.php and add this line right under <?php

If so, create a new style with no parent:

• Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Add New Style
• Parent Style: No Parent Style
• Title: Default vBulletin
• Allow User Selection: Yes
• Save

Then browse the site using that totally default vbulletin style and with your modifications disabled - do you still have the same problem?

Also, did you check to see if it was, you know, turned off? :)

OK default style works fine.....

Not sure why that is though as the custom style has only had colour changes

Obviously it has more than that. Go to the style > Edit templates > and see if any templates show up in red.

Hi, I'm having a similar issue with my "custom skin" as well. And it seemed to have happened right after the 4.1.5 to 4.1.6 upgrade...

Posted at the forum where I got the skin from:
I even disabled all plugins and add-ons when trying the above measures. There were no style/skin file edits either. I tried finding some solutions and etc, but with no luck, have found a "fix". I'm at a loss...

QUICK UPDATE: Turning OFF the option to let users pick their own skin/theme seems to work. Also, AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> MYSKIN -> StyleVars -> ImagePaths -> imgdir_editor
Make sure the value is: images/editor
instead of: images/styles/MYSKIN/editor

Seems to help a little bit. But it's still weird that it would only work in the opposite chosen skin...

Thanks for the writeup, but the above doesn't work for me.

Found a fix:

Re-upload includes\functions_editor.php. from the 4.1.5 version.

You're welcome... :) If it's core code that's doing this, we best report it to vBulletin.com as bug then. I just figured I'd add to this thread here, thinking or hoping maybe someone had quick solutions... lol. But will give it a shot though! :)

I just tried this, it does in fact work! Yes!! :D :D Thank you! We best submit this bug to vBulletin.com lol

Already in there, but read the bug report and see that it may be working as designed since this is specific to certain configurations some users have set that may be incorrectly set. http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-13156

Thank you Lynne... :) I've read it, and reuploaded the 4.1.6 includes/functions_editor.php file and tried some things with it.

Attempt 1:
I set the custom skin "CinemaFluid" as forum default skin for the board, set vBulletin's default skin for the two mobile settings. Enabled skin chooser/changer option for users. The editor is there for the "CinemaFluid" and "CinemaFixed" of custom skin. But it's not there for the vBulletin default skin.

Attempt 2:
I set the custom skin "CinemaFluid" as forum default skin for the board, set NONE for the two mobile settings. Enabled skin chooser/changer option for users. The editor is there for the "CinemaFluid", "CinemaFixed" of custom skin. And it's there for the vBulletin default skin.

According to what's said in the bug report comments, even if the two mobile settings are set at "None"... it would resort back to default skin anyway right? However, in this case, having the default vBulletin skin chosen for both mobile settings... The advanced editor is gone, but not in the custom skins when chosen in the forum... So the only way it works properly in all three skins, is to have NONE set for the mobile settings... Not sure if this is really correct or proper though either, because it should work with the vBulletin's default skin for the two mobile settings...?

I've replied to the ticket as well:
http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/...#action_123818

When you say "even if the two mobile settings are set at "None"... it would resort back to default skin anyway right?"... the default skin is *your* default skin, not any vbulletin default skin.

If you do not have the vbulletin mobile skin installed, then you should have NONE set for the two mobile settings.

Yeah, you're right. I've been out of the loop for so long regarding normal forum skins versus mobile skins, it's not funny. Plus, I'm running low on coffee lol. :P Everything is fine now, and there is no mobile skins uploaded, just custom forum skins.. and using one as the "default" for board. Everything is fine now lol. Thanks!! :)

After several days of frustration and trying to track this down....... Reverting this file fixed my problem....

cap

Same for me Guys reverting the file fixed the problem :)

You do not need to revert the file. The problem is in AdminCP > Settings > Options > Style & Language Settings > Default Style for Modern/Old Mobile Browsers, admins are incorrectly setting that to their Default Style. If you do NOT have a Mobile style to set in those options, then it should be set to NONE.

That does not work for me, reverting was the only way I could fix it

I have a similar problem where the icons for the editor (undo, code,bold etc...) does not appear. The background image (blank button type) image does appear however.

Im running version 4.1.5

I have tried reverting the file to an earlier realease, no luck
I have made sure my mobile settings are set to "None"
I have tried turning all plugins OFF
I have looked in my style templates, stylevars etc... changed everything I can think of which would effect it....

The editor works in the Default theme but im using a custom "Warrior" theme.

Weird thing is the two call up different locations for the icons. Web adress made avaliable on request as its a test site...

I have tried the vbul bug tracker and all suggestions in it agian no luck.
I have also tried everything in this post: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/show...4.1.5-to-4.1.6...

Never mind.... Fixed it with thispost: http://www.vbteam.info/vb-4-1-x-prem...b-4-1-1-a.html

Finally found a fix

Had the same issue.

Fix was overwriting includes/functions_editor.php of the 4.15 version.
