Description

Hi, this might have a very simple resolution, but I have looked around and can't find any way to do it (although I am watching the Bathurst 1000 V8 Supercars race while trying to figure it out too : )

What I want to do is use the WYSIWYG API (with TinyMCE) to create the custom front pages rather than hand-code them or use another editor to make them and have to cut-and-paste.

Am I missing something simple, or does this just not work... and if it doesn't work, would it be hard to implement?

Cheers in advance

I am trying to do exactly the same, but cannot get it to work. Recently changed from fckeditor which worked, but have switched to Tinymce and the wisywig api, and now cannot get wisywig functionality in this module.
Is there a fix on the horizon?

the front page module doesn't have any control over the editors..switching this to the TinyMCE issue queue

I'm having the very same problem, and have just thought of two - long winded - solutions.

1) Create a new page, and then copy the html from that into the Advanced Front Page text area.

2) Wait for it! ... I wonder could you/we/I also install TinyMCE as a 'normal' module and set it to display on Advanced Front Page only?

I don't see why 1) wouldn't work, though I have a feeling 2) might be asking for trouble.
