I have installed this module and it does not make any changes at all. Inside the Sections module I have created a section called admin. Two roles are assigned to this section.

The section is enabled, and the selected theme is enabled inside the themes area.

If I try to change the "Activate section on the specific pages", it doesn't save the new setting and always defaults to "show only on the listed pages". I put the following into that section to see if it would work but it hasn't helped:

admin
admin/*
node/add
node/*/edit

When I masquerade as the roles assigned to the section, nothing changes. The default theme is the only one working. Not sure what is going on with this. Kind of odd that it wouldn't work on a fresh install.

Disable admin theme and ALL other modules doing anything with the theme variable.

Just wanted to add that I'm having the same issue. Everything is set up properly and I did exactly as told in the readme. I have no admin theme installed and no mods messing with theme functions... yet still nothing. It's just like the module isn't even there... does absolutely nothing at all.

Thanks!

Please analyse it. Sections works on my sites like a charm.

I discovered the problem for me... and it was a simple one that I just overlooked. I'm using FCK, so it was causing conflicts when filtering, etc. So I just disabled FCK for the page specific settings to where it's only using plain text, no editor. That solved my problem. Try to do the same, just disable your editor for those sections and see if that helps.

Good luck!

Have you used the WYSIWYG module with FCK or FCKeditor.module?

I'm using the FCK Editor Mod on two of my sites and WYSIWYG module on another. The FCK mod is depreciated (I think), but I grabbed it anyway as I was using it before WYSIWYG was released. I really like the WYSIWYG mod - for the most part - but it is a bit more bloated than the FCK mod itself. And since I really don't like TinyMCE that much and will only be using FCK, it made more sense to eliminate useless options... enters the single FCK mod.

But I gotta say that on the site I'm using WYSIWYG mod, I really do like it. What makes it so much better is that it gives you more options and control over the editors... it's much easier to just "tick" a box rather than searching through and modding code. And honestly, I'm trying Tiny in conjunction with WYSIWYG and it's not too bad. Not as good as FCK, but not too shabby!

But yeah, the WYSIWYG mod is pretty slick!
