Hi
I am new to Drupal but am already hooked to it. I am using Druapl 6.14 and fckeditor 6.x-1.4. Everything was going on well until I decided to change the Advanced Profile settings under the fckeditor configuration window for integrating file browser modules. Whenever I change any settings there, my fckeditor just vanishes and I get back the default Drupal text box. I can't figure out wat's wrong. First I thought it was due to the module IMCE but I had no luck with integrating other modules like FileBrowser or even the default fckeditor file browser.

Please help.

Is FCKeditor working again when you deselect the file browser or do you have to reinstall the whole module to get it working again?

I am having a problem with the advanced profile also. I install the module and it seems to work fine. All I have to do is update the advanced profile and the fckeditor vanishes. I made no changes to the profile or any other settings. The only way I've found to get it working again is uninstall and reinstall.

Here is the data from the settings field of the fckeditor_settings table for the default profile:

Pre-updated (initial install):

Post-update (but no settings were changed):

Any help would be wonderful!

How are your fckeditor user permissions set up?

@micnap: are you also using 6.x-1.4?

micnap’s picture

Yes. 6.x-1.4 with Acquai Drupal 1.2.16 (latest)

Aha!!! Permissions. Solution was to:

1. Set access permissions to fckeditor in admin/user/permissions
2. Add roles to basic setup in advanced profile.

I assumed being logged in as admin would trump any permissions. But giving the authenticated role permissions is still necessary for admin to view the editor.

Problem solved.

Thanks,
Mickey

As far as I know, you should have seen a yellow warning bar at the FCKeditor administrative section. I consider this to be not a bug.
