Can't edit articles!

[meneceo]

Last version. Running (apparently fine) on a Win XP machine.

I can create new articles, but I can't edit them after. When I try I get... blank space...

Any idea? Thanks.

is it a new upgrade? did you upgrade the DB using the correct update.sql for you old version to your new version?

do you have a valid template for that article?

[meneceo]

new installation

templates are okay (I can't edit articles in the control panel)

hello

did you have any software firewall running!? did you set all permission right!?

I have a strange thing her too:

I used a WYSIWYG content element to put this into it:

Code: Select all

LASIX Behandlungen:
{RELATED:5:lasix}

and after saving the content, the editor is cleared, but I can see the result in the preview window, and I see

Code: Select all

Behandlungsmethoden / (Liste der Ärzte und Kliniken) / <P> <HR id=null> LASIX Behandlungen:</P> <P>{RELATED:5:lasix}</P>

on the screen, at the article information!

Switching to HTML shows absolute nothing, nada, njente, zero, nil, banana!

Any idea?

My wild guessing is, that the editor is f...... up by {.....}

hello

wich editor did you use!? -> try fckeditor

[RonDog]

Sorry, forgot the name, but it is the #4 editor in the setup/ini file.

It works fine so far, a bit slow... I also managed to have my firewall up while working online. Not bad... I wrote a statement about this, remember?

What I found out in the meantime is, that you could use "{RELATED:n:xxxx}" and the like expressions in WYSIWYG (editor #4), but you have to put it into a table.

hello

maybe try to add the rep tags in the source code modus of the editor.
i use always 3 the fck editor.

i think yours is the spaw.

[RonDog]

I know that works, but I'm pretty pedantic about form & style, that's why I had to use the WYSIWYG for.

Anyway, using tables is not bad, because I could use a vertical centered headline in the left column and the {RELATED} tag in the right one with a gray shade below, that makes this feature really appealing...

hello ron

yes you're right! i use the same thing for the table at the index page of the docu site. but what really importent is to use an external html editor for create tables. i've had a lot of trouble by use the wysiwyg editors table manager.

and i also don't mean use plain text or something. every wysiwyg editor has an sourcecode button! that was what i mean.

Hi Pappnase,

I love to type plain HTML and so Iuse CoffeCup HTML editor for this purpose. While trying out WCMS I often looked at the generated source by WYSIWYG and fond a mess there. Btw. copying content from Word gives funny HTML code...

That's why I feel uncomfortable about letting end users free hand with creating content by such editors.
