How to install modules
1. Read the instructions ... again.
2. Make CERTAIN you are using a module that matches the version of Drupal you are using.
3. Put the folder containing the module files in the right place. In Drupal 5, the recommended location is sites/all/modules/, below your Web server's document root.
If you follow these rules, the module will show up in Drupal's interface. When you activate it, the .install file will be run and any necessary database tables will be created.
The instructions for the TinyMCE module include a directive to download TinyMCE from Moxiecode's website and install it INSIDE the module's folder.
Read the instructions carefully
From the tinymce download page http://drupal.org/project/tinymce , read the instructions there carefully. You need to download another component of tinymce into the uploaded tinymce folder .

Omg, i did uploaded the wrong MOD, I've uploaded the right MOD now and installed it already, THX !
But again a problem.. I installed the MOD and when i use it, it shows up perfectly the bold txt, colored txt.. etc..
But when i post it it doesn't show up, its all plain txt ?
What did u do wrong ?
Filtered HTML, probably
Have a look at the input filters you have set. By default you'll have the Filtered HTML filter installed, and it's probably stripping out the code that TinyMCE is inserting.
You'll need to add those elements you want to use to the list of those accepted by the filter. I'd also customize TinyMCE so it only has the minimum set of buttons you need.
My bad!
Yes it was Filtered HTML,
Can u show me an example how and what to add too the filter ??
Have no idea how to do that.
Thx again !..
Also, Images (added images & smiley's) don't show up on the start page, only when u want to add a comment u see the images/smiley's..
Any idea how to fix it, so images show up on start page ??
Thx.. x2
Fixing the filter
Edit your test post and switch rich text off to see which HTML elements are in the code from TinyMCE, then add the ones you want to the list accepted by the filter. <div> and <span>, for example. For images, <img>
You'll find the list at admin/settings/filters/1/configure in the field "Allowed HTML tags",
:D
Thx Alf, i added the HTML tags successfully.
Thx for the support.
I still have one unsolved question.
I want to use Thumbs in my post and shown on start page.
Any idea how to do that ? Or a good MOD that can help me with that ??
An example = http://www.zattevrienden.be/node
I want the same thumbnail use..
Thx in advance ! x
Enable the Image module -
Enable the Image module - then enable thumbnails in the post and teaser from the content type admin. Use the weight setting to position the thumbnail ahead of the body (set a negative value) and then it'll get floated with text next to it,
Before adding any content images make sure the thumbnail size is what you want on the image module admin page.
You may also need to set permissions so your users can add images.
Image Module ??
Dear Alfa, I don't have the Image Module ??
And i have no idea where i can download it..
Thx again !
