Hello, when I add HTML tags into, say, an article or basic pae via Filtered or Full HTML, the tags get displayed literally and not interpreted. As I don't know Drupal well enough to understand how it processes the tags, I'm sure where to troubleshoot. I removed the WYSIWYG module and redownloaded & installed it. I also removed the ckeditor 3.6.4 and installed 3.6.6. No difference. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Check your text formats at admin/config/content/formats to ensure they are configured correctly and the appropriate roles have access to the filter you want to use. Adjust permissions as required at admin/people/permissions.

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, I still haven't resolved the issue.

  • "Administrators" role is checked & I've been troubleshooting this with an admin account
  • Under "Enable Filters", the following are all checked:
    • Limit allowed HTML tags
    • Convert line breaks into HTML
    • Convert URLs into links
    • Correct faulty and chopped off HTML
  • At the bottom under "Filter Settings-->Limited Allowed HTML tags", the tags I have tried are tags listed there. Also, "Display basic HTML help in long filter tips" is checked

Any other thoughts on what to check?

The WYSIWYG module was detected. Using both modules at the same time may cause problems. It is recommended to turn the WYSIWYG module off

This is what I get at admin/config/content/ckeditor when I enable both CKEditor and Wysiwyg and how I was able to recreate your error. To fix it; disable Wysiwyg, edit your content and save.

Thanks for the suggestion. Your solution quickly led me to resolve the issue. I didn't actually have the WYSIWYG module & CKEDITOR module installed at the same time. I had WYSIWYG module & CkEditor editor installed. When I turned off WYSIWYG, I found my filtered HTML tags in the text area (in edit mode) represented with the ampersand and number codes. By putting back in the pointy brackets, the HTML worked. However, that still left me without an editor.

So, I removed the WYSIWYG module & the CkEditor 3.6.6. I installed the CKEDITOR module & the CkEditor 4.0.1. Now I can see my HTML & I have an editor.

Thanks so much!
