I finally figured out how to add the FCKeditor (a WYSIWYG rich text editor) to the OpenOffice.org wiki (it was held up by a long standing error in the pHp backend that I fixed this morning). The FCKeditor is *OFF* by default for all users (including new users). I set this by request from discussions we've had on this topic in the past. We can enable it by default for newly registered users if we want by changing an option in the Wiki preferences file... but for now it's disabled for everyone, and must be explicitly switched on if you want to use it. To enable the FCKeditor: 1. Log into the Wiki using your normal user ID. 2. Click the "my preferences" link at the top of the Wiki page. 3. Go to Misc. 4. Remove the check marks in the boxes next to the option "Disable rich editor". 5. You can toggle other options related to the rich text editor depending on your preferences. 6. Click Save. This editor has many nice features beyond the basics for editing... for example adding Templates of Categories - you can pick them from a drop down list. So... test it out. Let me know if there are any issues (please discuss on the d...@website.openoffice.org mailing list). Note: You can always toggle the editor off with the "Disable rich editor" link at the top of the page you're editing if there is something on the page that is causing problems in the editor.
