Hi! I'm a newbie to Drupal. I'm having trouble with Tiny MCE 3.2.5. Im using Drupal 6.1.13 and for someone reason when i come to use TinyWYISYG editor, and alter the text to different fonts it always displays it in BB code. I've tried just using HTML source code, but I still get the same problem. Tried unchecking the boxes on the profile settings so that it doesnt alter any html code that i input.

Also at present using the button options cannot display media and pictures I want to upload. It always puts them in BB code as well. When i come to put html code, it converts it on the output to BB code and doesnt display the images or media.

I tried switching my editors and tried FCKeditor but that was too much hassle involved and a while day wasted trying to configure. I would like to stick with TinyMCE, as Im a newbie and would actually like to get the features on it working!

Please help.

Thanks

a screencapture of what you are seeing would help as would a full description of exactly how you've set this up including input format in use, filters in use so on so forth.

can't get a screenshot up at the minute. will post one later.
Input format is WYSIYG. I've just got the verify HTML filter switched on and the remove linebreaks.
It's weird because I see the fonts, colours, media, pictures in the input just never get them on the output all i get is BB code.
Ive edited my theme style.css so it can display different fonts, sizes and colours.

hope someone can help.

the bbcode is coming from the WYSIYG editor.
i get things like:
[url=mylink]mylink[/url]
where ive used the editors hyperlink feature.
[b]text[/b]
[i]text[/i]

and similar things when i try to insert images and media:
[img]"imagetitle.jpg"[/img]

as far as I can tell, none of the editors you mention use bbcode. They use HTML. thus inspect all your modules for what is creating the bbcode.
