I'm new to Drupal, hopefully I can explain this correctly.

After much work I've finally gotten the CKEditor toolbar to appear. However, after editing text within the textfield and saving, none of the changes I made appear on the actual page. I created an input format and called it 'Text Editor' and unchecked all filters and enabled all roles, because I had read that filtered html will cause the problem I'm having. I even made it default. However when I go to edit a page, filtered html is still shown as the default and when I attempt to check Text Editor instead, the entire textfield along with the CKEditor toolbar disappears.

Anyone have any ideas?

Do u use WYSIWYG module or CKEditor module? because CKEditor module not work with input format changing in D6... It's possibly only in WYSIWYG module for now...

Not sure I understand your question but I believe I'm using CKEditor, or rather, I don't know why I wouldn't be as I followed all the instructions to install it. I don't really want to change input format, however if you mean I can't make my own input format then can you explain how to make it work with either filtered or full html?

Hi,
@MaskedJellybean to check if you have CKEditor or WYSIWYG module installed please go to /admin/modules page and look at name of module you have enabled (CKEditor or WYSIWYG). This is really important because those modules should not be enabled together. Please check this to be sure and give us an info than we can go further.

I have the same problem (Drupal 7, Bartik Plus subtheme) ALL the text edited after installing the CKEDITOR disappears completely. Even if I edit an existing page and switch to the plain text editor: after saving all the text disappears.

I guess(ed) it has something to do with the filter settings. I gave not changed them, but they seem to allow me as the administrator to use filtered and even full html.

When during the edit under the text area I select "Full HTML" the text appears. Like if the specs for filtered html in CKeditor and the filters were different, being the filter more strict .

Anybody got a clue??

CKEditor module not work with input format changing in D6" - thats not completely true. Although it is a pain, only text areas that were created after ckeditor was installed and configured with receive the new input format. Unless that input format was created before ckeditor. In other words you cannot change the input format from say filtered to full after the ckeditor install -> it will not reflect

If you create a new text area, after the ckeditor install, with a full HTML or in field you select "Filtered text (user selects input format)" and the default filter is Full HTML , it will reflect those changes.

If problem still exists pls update to last DEV version of CKEditor module, last CKEditor library and then try to reproduce this problem again. If it doesn't help pls report it and write as much details as u can.
